Board of Directors

The Conseil de développement économique de la Nouvelle-Écosse operates under the governance of a diverse Board of Directors made up of professionals and entrepreneurs representing all our regions of Nova Scotia. These volunteer directors devote their time and skills to ensure the good governance of the CDÉNÉ, and are elected for specific terms by the General Assembly.

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) reports directly to the Board of Directors. The Board meets regularly to ensure CDÉNÉ's sound financial and strategic governance. It establishes strategic plans in collaboration with management, approves and monitors budgets, and ensures that objectives are met and that the organization's obligations and relationships with our funders, partners, collaborators and others are properly managed.
