This week, Colleen Proudfoot (Pictou County Partnership) and Ann MacGregor (Nova Scotia Works Career Connections) welcome Layla Rahmeh, Executive Director of the Pictou County Chamber of Commerce.

We also discuss the importance of small businesses, collaboration among local economic development organizations, and upcoming Small Business Week visits to local businesses from the Chamber, Pictou County Partnership, and IGNITE.
