Trade Show & Conference
   

Labrador North Chamber of Commerce (LNCC) and The Baffin Regional Chamber of Commerce (BRCC) are joint partners in a high profile event – the Northern Lights Trade Show and Conference.  This ground breaking, business and cultural showcase of Labrador, Nunavut and Nunavik was held at the Ottawa Congress Centre from January 30 - February 2, 2008. The second Northern Lights event is tentatively scheduled for early 2010 in Montreal, Quebec.

The show serves many purposes including:

  • Help to create stronger relationships between northern regions;
  • General promotion of our regions to the southern markets;
  • Promotion of economic development opportunities available in the eastern Arctic and North;
  • Promote joint ventures and the exchange of information between the northern regions and others;
  • Allow northern organizations the opportunity to establish new relationships with southern businesses;
  • Promote Expo Labrador, the Nunavut Trade Show and Conference and other regional trade shows and conferences to the south and to the other northern regions;
  • Promote eastern Arctic and North tourism, culture and the arts to both the South and other northern regions.

The innaugral four day event was a huge success, attracting over 100 exhibitors and more than 500 delegates.  The event also featured many high profile speakers, as well as a sizeable arts and cultural exhibition of visual and performing artists from all three profiled northern regions.
