Community Economic Development
Highlights of Enterprise South East's role as it relates to community economic development in the South East region include:
- Providing leadership and partnership coordination in activities and initiatives relating to economic development in the South East region

To ensure continued economic growth in our region we work closely with our partners in a leadership, partnership, or supportive role.

The Advisory Forum is comprised of the following partners:
- Federal government departments and elected officials
- Provincial government departments and elected officials
- Municipalities
- Representatives from Local Service Districts
- Local community development organizations
- Local business associations
- Educational institutions
- Businesses in the South East region
