Prosper NB is a year-round community for business owners, buyers, investors and immigrant entrepreneurs — with monthly sessions, in person and virtual, building up to our flagship one-day summit.
The Summit is Prosper NB's biggest day, but not its only one. Every month, we bring the community together — online for anyone across the province, and in person for those who want to meet face to face — to keep deals, introductions and conversations moving between summits.

Live online sessions open to the whole province — no travel required — covering the same six themes that anchor the Summit.
Once a year, the whole community — plus new faces — comes together in Moncton for a full day of panels, keynotes, B2B meetings and the Exhibition Hall.
