This event will help Indigenous entrepreneurs make connections and gain knowledge from leading Indigenous entrepreneurs who will share their stories of what has helped them to become successful. There will also be a short workshop to access tools and resources for business planning, mentoring, building community partnerships, and finding a cooperative model that is more than a sales pitch.
You will:
- Discover resources and tools to help with starting your own business
- Find out how to receive feedback and how to tell your story
- Learn by leading by example from Indigenous community members and mentors
- How to move from vision to action and how to raise up Indigenous community
- Take your ideas from creation to completion and find your strength
