WHY WE’RE PARTNERING WITH POW WOW PITCH
For the past four years, we’ve had the honour of participating in the Pow Wow Pitch program and mentoring more than 75 talented entrepreneurs and finalists. We feel aligned with Pow Wow Pitch’s mission of helping others succeed. We hope that by continuing to strengthen our commitment to the program, we can be of service to entrepreneurs who can benefit from our unique expertise and support Pow Wow Pitch’s efforts to provide platforms, programs, and resources to assist Indigenous entrepreneurs in growing thriving and sustainable businesses.
HOW WE’RE PARTNERING
Continuing our longstanding commitment to support Pow Wow Pitch, our team will volunteer as mentors offering 1:1 virtual advisory support to the finalists during the Bootcamp program. Pow Wow Pitch entrepreneurs will have access to our Learning Toolkit which includes curated tools and templates to help Indigenous entrepreneurs plan and grow their businesses.
We will support when market research is needed to measure the impact on Indigenous entrepreneurs and sponsors who participated in the program.
This year, we will extend our engagement by providing team members to act as mentors and judges for the in-person event.
Finally, we will be honoured to present an award at the 2025 Indigenous Entprepreneur Awards, recognizing excellence and outstanding leadership.
OUR IMPERFECT PLAN
We recognize that we are responsible for the process of Truth & Reconciliation. We developed our Imperfect Plan to help us identify what we can do as individuals and as a company to learn, understand and act in support of Indigenous communities. We believe allyship begins with education which is why we’re learning from Indigenous Community leaders and developing a program that supports meaningful change and long-term impact, including partnering with Pow Wow Pitch to elevate the next generation of Indigenous entrepreneurs.
