About Us

The United States and Canada have the largest bilateral trading relationship in the world. One of the oldest, closest, and most active trading areas within this bilateral relationship is between the New England States and Canada.

The New England-Canada Business Council, Inc. (NECBC) was formed in 1981 to bring together businesses and individuals with an interest in the U.S.-Canada relationship and, more specifically, New England-Canada political, economic, business and cultural affairs.

Today, the Council's membership is composed of business leaders from a wide range of sectors including finance, law, consulting, energy, and high technology, as well as government and academic officials and individuals with links to Canada. Membership in the NECBC is open to all with an interest in fostering the growth of our historic and strategic New England-Canada ties.

NECBC membership is a cost-effective way to build cross-border networks and get your organization's name, products and services in front of an influential community of Canadians and Americans.
