CANADIAN COUNCIL FOR ABORIGINAL BUSINESS/LE CONSEIL CANADIEN POUR LE COMMERCE AUTOCHTONE

The Canadian Council for Indigenous Business works to strengthen Indigenous entrepreneurs and businesses across Canada through mentorship, networking, and access to capital. Based in Toronto, the organization connects Indigenous business owners with resources, training, and market opportunities while advocating for policies that support Indigenous economic development. The council operates a range of programs designed to help Indigenous entrepreneurs grow their ventures, enter new markets, and build sustainable enterprises. By fostering connections between Indigenous business leaders and mainstream economic institutions, the organization addresses systemic barriers that Indigenous entrepreneurs face. The council also works to increase visibility of Indigenous-owned businesses and promote economic self-determination within Indigenous communities across the country.
