Mikwam Makwa Ikwe (Ice Bear Woman) - A National Needs Analysis on Indigenous Women's Entrepreneurship

Throughout 2020, the Women Entrepreneurship Knowledge Hub held a series of roundtable community consultations with more than 350 participants across Canada, to learn more about the needs, challenges and aspirations of Indigenous women entrepreneurs.
