On Monday, April 11, Ed Lawlor, one of the Founders of Island Advance will be speaking to our Club. Island Advance is a task force created to identify key areas to help promote economic growth in Prince Edward Island. This task force completed a report titled “Advancing our Economic Future” which outlined recommendations aimed to create a vibrant entrepreneurial community in the province in 2014.

The Island Advance Initiative seeks to foster economic growth in Prince Edward Island by:

  1. Embracing entrepreneurship
  2. Improving access to capital
  3. Attracting and retaining entrepreneurial immigrants.
