The course provides Indigenous and non-Indigenous students with an in-depth understanding of Indigenous entrepreneurship. It focuses on how economic reconciliation is pursued through the creation and management of new ventures by and for Indigenous peoples that are responsive to the community, its values, traditions, culture, and socioeconomic needs.

It explores how Indigenous peoples act on their inherent rights and assert sovereignty through social, cultural, spiritual, environmental and economic value creation activities as a means to design, develop and maintain Indigenous political, economic and social systems to promote community well-being while enabling members to engage in traditional, cultural and innovative economic activities.

We are looking for companies that have been founded by and are still managed by members of the Indigenous community.
