The SVS-Richter team is back again this year to bring the PDAC (Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada) Indigenous Program audience another inspiring session.
Tuesday, March 3rd:
Sharing Business Success Stories: How to make the most of opportunities both basic and complex
If you aren't coming to PDAC this year, never fear: Guest authors from each business have graciously shared their company stories over the past weeks. We have combined them into a snazzy new eBook!
eBook and PDAC Session Overview:
The number of successful, thriving Indigenous businesses that got their start connected to the resource sector is growing at an exciting rate. If you’re looking for ideas on how to take advantage of opportunities both basic and complex, this session is for you! If you’re a proponent that’s new to establishing agreements and joint ventures with Indigenous businesses and economic development entities, come learn about the intriguing opportunities that exist in the realm of Indigenous procurement.
Representatives from four dynamic businesses will share their journeys and advice. We will also take a deep look into a novel proponent-First Nation business arrangement whose partners have agreed to share their process. Learn about best practices related to contracting and business opportunities, and the increasing use of sole-source rights entitlements. When Indigenous businesses thrive, everyone wins!
