"It’s incumbent upon those of us that lead, participate and work for some of these traditional companies to listen and to pivot. What we’re really hearing is that if we listen carefully to how businesses want to grow, the answers are actually very clear. We have to rally the both the voices of our Indigenous companies and entrepreneurs, along side our traditional businesses across the country to create a new model for growth." Sasha Krstic, President, Mastercard Canada #GlobeEntrepreneurship

Procurement can have a huge role in growing Indigenous businesses. Government investment and policy shouldn’t just be a checkbox - it needs to build capacity and wealth in Indigenous communities and Indigenous peoples so in the future, they can compete without the help. The procurement policy needs to be strong and true to the purpose. Keith McIntosh, Founder and CEO, PLATO Testing #GlobeEntrepreneurship

"Indigenous entrepreneurship doesn’t necessarily fit within the westernized concepts and measurements of impact. We need to continue to support Indigenous institutions that are leading Indigenous-led investments and partnerships. Indigenous-led institutions are essential." Carol Anne Hilton, MBA, ICD.D, CEO and Founder, Indigenomics Institute, Global Centre of Indigenomics and the Global Indigenous Technology House #GlobeEntrepreneurship

"Not every business needs to be or even wants to be a multi-million dollar business. We really need to focus on how we support our small-medium businesses. The traditional models don't work." Patrice Mousseau, Founder and CEO, Satya Organic Skin Care #GlobeEntrepreneurship
