Starting Your Business

When starting or growing a business there are so many things to know and learn, to name few: taxes, government programs, business culture, credit scores, etc...

Whatever your background, it is challenging to start or grow a successful business in a new country, and we are here to help.

At ISANS, we have a great team of business counselors to support you in every step of the way and can save you time and frustration. They will help you get answers to your questions:

  • Questions about Nova Scotia business practices.
  • Questions about funding sources.
  • Questions about building networks ...and much more.

We put together a comprehensive list of resources to support you as you start your business. We also developed relationships with professionals in all areas of support for entrepreneurs.

Business counselling is a free service offered to ISANS clients with a CLB 5 or higher. You will receive one-on-one support before, during, and after you open your business.
