The Canadian economic development agency Enterprise Fredericton is coming to Boston to connect to New England businesses, and it has picked tech-focused business development services company Good Leads to help it set up meetings.

Enterprise Fredericton, which services the Greater Fredericton region of New Brunswick, will be in the area March 25-27, in conjunction with a visit to Boston by the patrol frigate HMCS Fredericton.

Robert Good Associates LLC, the Salem, N.H.-based company that operates as Good Leads, will be connecting officials from the development agency with executives in the information technology field, with a particular focus on the health-care sector, according to Good Leads CEO Bob Good. A total of 10 companies from Greater Fredericton will be visiting the region, according to Good.

In addition, Good, who serves as New Hampshire Commercial Consul to Canada, will be inviting some of the trade mission participants to attend the board of director’s meeting of the New Hampshire High Technology Council, which meets during their visiting period. Good is a board member of the NHHTC.
