Hi!
I’m inspired by the Connectors who want people to be rooted in our communities. They invest in our prosperity culture by sharing 30 minutes, their expertise and personal connections to help people achieve their goals.
I’m awed by the education and experience of our Connectees who are determined to belong. They’re eager to meet successful Connectees to learn more about their field in the Island context and identify hidden job opportunities.
And, most importantly, I’m determined to use the PEI Network to demonstrate to the world that our Island is open for business.
Want to learn more?


Our team includes the local organizations
that will be pleased to help you!
