Enterprise Network
The Enterprise Network is designed to create prosperity in communities throughout the province through its network of 15 regional Enterprise agencies. By building stronger communities, the Enterprise Network is helping build a stronger New Brunswick.
New Brunswick's approach to economic development puts communities in the drivers seat of their own economic growth, by giving them real decision-making power and the resources they need to build on their own assets and strengths. It's community development from the ground up based on a partnership between various levels of government and the community. The goal is to help businesses and community organizations take their future in their own hands.

The Department of Business New Brunswick drives New Brunswick’s economic development strategy through three key priorities: • Aggressive investment attraction – We get the word out among international corporate leaders that New Brunswick is the place to be in business, focusing on knowledge-based industries, value-added natural resources, bio-technologies and advanced manufacturing • Business retention and expansion – We help traditional resource and manufacturing industries be more profitable by targeting emerging markets and improving energy efficiency and productivity. • Cluster development – We build on our existing research communities and resource-based industries to create business clusters that focus on advanced learning, biosciences, health, energy, aerospace and defence and advanced manufacturing.
