Absolutely. The benefits of becoming a SPONSOR or TRADESHOW EXHIBITOR include increased visibility with indigenous communities, leaders, and decision-makers. You'll have the ability to network with over 200+ attendees and participants will have the opportunity to speak in front of conference delegates, presenting an invaluable chance to showcase their products and services to potential Indigenous buyers.
The First Nation Economic Summit is open to all Indigenous and non-Indigenous people and organizations that want to learn about new economic development opportunities for Indigenous communities and businesses across Ontario. Along side our EDO's we will also be hosting a stream dedicated to our Indigenous Entrepreneurs/Businesses. This is a GREAT opportunity to meet Indigenous decision makers, government officials, industry leaders and professional representatives who want to be involved with Indigenous economic development and advancement.
