The Atlantic Provinces Chambers of Commerce (APCC) and the World Trade Centre Atlantic Canada (WTCAC) welcome you to Atlantic Prosperity Sum-
mit 2012, with its theme Ocean and Innovation.
The Atlantic Ocean is one natural resource all the Atlantic Provinces share; it impacts all our lives even if we are not aware. It provides the potential
for unlimited economic prosperity for all four provinces, if we but work together. Amazing technologies are being developed impacting the future of
areas like renewable energy and transportation in and on the water, and the natural resources to be harnessed such as wind, wave and tidal have
enormous potential for our future.
And to make all this work, we need people, and we need people to work together. Individually our provinces are small; together we have strength.
Be part of the discussion - be part of Atlantic Prosperity Summit 2012 - as we delve into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, and its impact on the
economic future of our region and our people.
