techNL Provincial Election Brief – Request for Party Commitments

Oct 8, 2025 | News

On September 16th we shared techNL’s 2025 Provincial Election Brief, which highlighted 18 recommendations to accelerate the growth of Newfoundland and Labrador’s tech sector.

The NL tech sector contributed $1.8B to GDP in 2023 and employs nearly 10,000 people. With a clear target of $2.5B by 2030, the tech sector can shape the future of the economy of Newfoundland and Labrador and drive growth across energy, oceans, defence, and more.

The Progressive Conservative, Liberal, and NDP parties have been provided with the brief, and we have also offered to meet with their candidates to discuss these recommendations in more detail. 

Please see below for the parties responses to the recommendations. Responses are published in the order they were received to ensure fairness and avoid any perception of bias.
