NSIS's STRATEGIC PLAN

Vision 

To be the most accessible science and technology network providing quality resources to partners and communities in Northwestern BC.

We will do so by:

• Being visible and well known in the region.
• Establishing relations across the region and being a network with outreach capacity. Our network will consist of information, people, and activities.
• Being a known resource for assisting clients in taking their idea(s) to commercialization. NSIS will be "in the know" and be able to identify gaps.
• Encouraging and developing scientific thinking without the label of science. Including and assisting students in making career choices in Science and Technology.
• Being a catalyst in the development of more viable science and technology businesses.
• Controlling our growth.

We are the Northwest BC champion for Excellence in Science and Technology.
