Spotlight on Business - 11.2017

***Being successful is about getting people involved, it is pride in our companies and communities that drive the economy, whether you are a small town in Nova Scotia, or an innovative company that had to travel to the Dragon’s Den to pitch your product and take your company to the next level. One thing that we continue to learn is success is a team effort, whether you are promoting visiting, living, working or doing business in a town or creating a game changing piece of equipment, you need a strong, engaged and passionate team.
