Welcome to NEBA - North Edmonton Business Association

Business professionals helping entrepreneurs and business in the North Edmonton & Surrounding Areas promote and grow their businesses. Our geographical area of focus is north of the Yellowhead Trail. This incorporates five municipal wards: Ward 1, Ward 2, Ward 3, Ward 4 and Ward 7. North Edmonton Business Association (NEBA) has three primary objectives: a) Growth b) Education c) Communication

How do we do this?

We believe in first working to understand what is important to professionals and entrepreneurs looking to do business in our area of focus. We then looked to research into the various Wards to understand the demographic makeup of the businesses in the area. Our goal is to get input from our city councilors, MLAs and community members. We welcome input as it helps us to focus on what are some of the issues, challenges and events or things happening in our area of focus. We believe it's important to first listen to and understand what professionals and entrepreneurs in North Edmonton - (North West and North East) might be looking for from our Association. We strongly believe that by working together with business and government in our area, we can continually improve the profile of our area and create additional business opportunities in our growing and vibrant community. Our organization consists of a diverse group of business professionals with a wide range of skills and expertise. By sharing common goals we are able to increase the opportunity for each business in our community.

We are the connector for entrepreneurs and professionals (or individuals) who have an interest in doing business in our geographical area of focus.

We look for opportunity to help our members’ foster relationships by:

providing networking events such as business mixers or luncheon,

proactively setting up strategic business introduction sessions

invite members to participate or enroll in educational workshops

About Us: NEBA is dedicated to serving the needs of our members each and every day.

We want to hear from you.

We want to know what your business challenges are.

We want to learn from each other through networking.

We want to grow by supporting other businesses in our area.
