Think business speed-dating for decision makers!
The Aboriginal Business Match 2012 is the most potent Aboriginal business networking event in Western Canada. It is a direct connection to the growing business and project opportunities now available with First Nations in British Columbia.
No other event in British Columbia offers more strategic and exclusive access to First Nations and corporate leaders with real business opportunities seeking partners, investors, customers and suppliers.
Management Leadership Forums at Tsleil-Waututh Tsleil-Waututh Nation, North Vancouver, BC
The next Forum will be held in December. Details will be advised.
The Leadership Forums at Tsleil-Waututh provide a space for Aboriginal communities and their partners to create new ideas. They are about sharing expertise and learning. Based on Tsleil-Waututh’s own economic successes and the realization that the Nation can learn much from its peers, this venue is offered to better use and develop effective strategies and tools that create wealth and achieve community, political and business goals.
The Leadership Forums bring Aboriginal leaders together to expand their communities’ participation and influence in regional economies while managing infrastructure as well as services and developing businesses both on and off-reserve.
