SMU launches network to support regional businesses, communities amid pandemic

Saint Mary’s University has launched the Sobey School of Business Community Revitalization & Prosperity Network, an initiative established to support the recovery of regional communities and businesses following the pandemic. Services offered through the network include expert consultation, evidence-informed free webinars, and access to blog posts and opinion editorials. “We must come out of this crisis stronger, and we know that will take a coordinated effort across all sectors of our economy,” said Harjeet Bhabra, Dean of the Sobey School of Business. “We anticipate this project will enable meaningful collaborations between our Sobey School researchers, industry experts and those on the frontlines, sparking the innovation that will revitalize our economy. We want our joint efforts to produce a more prosperous province for all Nova Scotians.” SMU (NS)
