Tech South East will offer members of its IT group and health and life science companies workshops and seminars on business skill development.

"Our government's investment in Tech South East will help the region's technology cluster to acquire and enhance the skills needed to be an efficient, effective and successful competitor in both the domestic and international marketplace," said Rob Moore, Minister of State for Small Business and Tourism and MP for Fundy Royal.
