    This two-day Indigenous Women in Business Workshop introduces Indigenous women entrepreneurs to the knowledge, skills, and tools needed to start, strengthen, or grow a successful business. Participants will learn from experienced Indigenous Women Entrepreneurs (IWE) through an interactive panel discussion, gain practical experience in developing a business plan, explore strategies for pricing products and services, and build a basic cash flow forecast to support financial planning. Through hands-on exercises, and peer learning, participants will leave with increased confidence, practical business planning tools, and actionable next steps for their entrepreneurial journey.

    Who Should Attend
    Indigenous women who are currently operating a business, operating a business part-time, or is thinking about starting a business.
