Cora Kavyaktok, a proud Inuk entrepreneur originally from Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, is redefining what business wear can look like through her brand, Inuk Gold. Now based in Vermilion, Alberta, Cora is the founder and creative force behind this emerging clothing line that offers professional business attire featuring subtle Inuit designs created by Inuit artists. More than fashion, Inuk Gold is a platform for cultural celebration and community reinvestment. The brand purchases artwork upfront, shares each artist’s story, and gives five percent of net profits directly to the artist, with another five percent donated to a nonprofit of their choice in their home community. Inuk Gold blends elegance with purpose, making space for Inuit identity in boardrooms across the country.
