PEI Connectors offer support services to businesses owned and operated by immigrant entrepreneurs and connects job-seekers, new Islanders and new graduates to business and community leaders in order to grow professional networks and expand career opportunities on the Island.
Our mission is to help our clients overcome challenges that they may face due to unfamiliarity with the local business environment and a lack of professional connections. To achieve this, we connect them with our network of Volunteer Connectors, which includes mentors, business leaders, community partners, and other supporters.
