Atlantic Advantage

As we enter an era of a truly global economy, there is a place positioned for success — to the power of 4. Ever at the forefront of exploration and innovation, the four distinct provinces of Atlantic Canada form one powerful alliance. This alliance is a force for success, with world-leading expertise in three key sectors. We are masters of the oceans. With more than 40,000 kilometres of coastline, we’re home to over half of Canada’s $30 billion ocean economy and a powerful base for offshore energy, ocean technology, and shipbuilding. We have our finger on the pulse of cyber technology, with a growing reputation as a hub for information security, critical infrastructure security, and financial technology. We are a force in aerospace and defense, with particular skills in maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO); sensor and simulation technologies; and ground vehicle testing. The combined force of 4 provinces working together as one gives you access to a highly-skilled workforce, a location that’s positioned perfectly for global connections, and a region that’s big enough to accommodate large-scale ventures, but agile enough to make things happen fast. That’s the power of 4.
