Celebrating African Heritage Month in Nova Scotia

Wrapping up another successful year with our members

Halifax’s growth can be attributed to collaboration

Fostering innovation in the workplace leads to new ideas and revenue.

We are partnering with Export Development Canada and Nova Scotia Business Inc. (NSBI) and beginning a Trade Accelerator Program (TAP) that will assist Nova Scotia companies in increasing their exports and ultimately their sales.

New program aims to help Halifax businesses break into export game

The Chamber plans to engage voters in the upcoming election

It’s summertime in Nova Scotia, the days are longer, warmer and full of sunshine, and for some, that means business slows down. For us at the Chamber, it means planning.

Halifax has a lot to be proud of right now and we’re looking forward to even more success in the coming year.

Offer students a reason to stay

It’s budget month in Nova Scotia. For the Halifax Chamber, it means we have submitted our provincial pre-budget list, outlining our asks and considerations for the fiscal budget.

The Now or Never Report is celebrating its fifth anniversary this month — how are we doing?

Welcome to a brand-new year of growing, innovating, trying new things and celebrating change.

Our seventh annual Agents of Change Business Voice issue. Given all the excitement throughout our city this fall, it’s a natural fit to profile some of Halifax’s risk-takers and change-makers.

Our new strategic plan is an evolution more than a revoution. It builds on the previous five years of work in reducing red tape and the tax burden, increasing immigration and growing Halifax.

This year, our Fall Dinner is focused on a common topic through a new angle: innovation. This word is used so often that it can lose its actual meaning: the introduction of something new. It’s a critical time for new ideas in Nova Scotia.

International trade is not just a “Canada” issue. It affects each province and territory. You may be surprised to know that our list of exports is long and varied. This means many Halifax-based businesses will see the effects of trade wars.

Over my time at the Chamber, the sheer number of startups that I’ve come face-to-face with has surpassed my expectations. Each of them with their own mission and purpose and desire to grow their businesses.
