Join us to hear from Steven Burns, Founder, President & COO of Bulletproof!

Steven Burns is the founding member of his passion, Bulletproof, an IT Security and Managed IT Services firm. Since its inception in 2001, the company has grown steadily and is now over 270 people with offices in 22 different countries. Bulletproof was acquired in 2016 by Gaming Laboratories International. Burns lead the team as CEO and saw the company double in size but dealt with life adversity when his loving wife of 20 years was killed in the line of duty as City of Fredericton Police Officer. Burns stepped away to focus on his 3 boys and their family but recently returned to help the company with its next growth strategy. Bulletproof has plans to grow its operations in NB by over 240 people over the next 4 years. 

During his entrepreneurial career Burns has been chosen as one of Atlantic Canada’s top 50 CEO’s for five consecutive years and was inducted into the Top 50 CEO Hall of Fame in 2008. Most recently, he was inducted into the NB Business Hall of Fame in 2020. Burns has always had a drive for philanthropy within his community helping raise over 2 million dollars for local charities. These fundraisers have included running with the Bulls in Pamplona Spain for Autism, living on top of a transport truck for the local foodbanks, walking from Edmundston NB to Fredericton NB raising money for a local women’s shelter and most recently breaking a Guiness Book of World Record for youth mental health.
