A Visit to Siksika First Nation – Indigenous Prosperity Foundation
October 15, 2024
In March 2024, the Indigenous Prosperity Foundation (IPF) was honoured to be hosted by the Board of the Indian Business Corporation (IBC) during our Walking Together Tour at Siksika First Nation in Alberta. Guided by Guided by Romeo Crow Chief, the Interim General Manager, we met with local entrepreneurs and businesses to gain valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing Indigenous entrepreneurs in Siksika.
Inside the Indian Business Corporation (IBC)
Our first stop was the Indian Business Corporation (IBC), a cornerstone of economic development in the Siksika community. The IBC provides essential financial services and support to Indigenous entrepreneurs, playing a critical role in fostering economic empowerment. Romeo shared the Board’s vision for IBC and its potential to address some of the pressing challenges Indigenous entrepreneurs face.
