About Progress

 Progress Magazine marks its 16th anniversary in 2009.

Launched by award-winning magazine publisher and regional advocate Neville Gilfoy, the magazine was founded on a single premise – to promote wealth creation through profitable business growth. 

A new mindset and a new generation of entrepreneurs has emerged, and Progress is devoted to chronicling their stories and revealing key insights for readers. Subscribers rely on us for independent intelligence and expert commentary. Essential subjects are covered in depth, in a language and style suited to the region’s most influential audience.

This unique focus on balanced enterprise and thoughtful leadership inspired the launch of four spin-off magazines, as well as two major events: Face to Face: “A meeting of entrepreneurial minds” and The TOP 101 Companies. The success of these inaugural events has led to the development of three more live celebrations: Fastest Growing Companies, Best Places to Work, and new in 2008 -- Marketer of the Year.

Progress Magazine, its ancillaries, and its networking events act as a powerful nexus for those who are taking the risks to build the Atlantic region.

Progress Magazine is the flagship publication of Progress Media Group. Other titles include Progrès, Progress Preferred Book of Lists, Progress R+D, and Nova Scotia Open to the World.
