We're on a mission to inspire economic growth on the South Shore by building a stronger relationship between the public, local businesses, entrepreneurs, and the organizations that support economic development.

We've created two short streams in one survey: the first part is for community members and the second part is for business owners and operators. Your input will be compiled into a summary report shared with Chambers of Commerce and economic development partners, and used to shape real action.

This is the first edition of what we intend to be a recurring initiative. The goal is simple: to keep asking better questions, and to keep listening.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to share your experience.Provide your contact information at the end of the survey to be entered into a draw for prizes.

Thank you to Don Mills and David Campbell, our event partners and Investors and to everyone who joined us for the Toward Prosperity lunch. We had a terrific turnout - South Shore businesses, regional leaders, and entrepreneurs from Shelburne to Chester and lots of great questions asked. Everyone received a copy of Towards Prosperity - The Transformation of Atlantic Canada's Economy.

There is so much potential and entrepreneurial spirit in our region but we also heard about the challenges... and SSEA is committed to continuing the conversation.
