Indigenous Economic Development Week is winding down, but the plans from it remain ongoing. The week was declared in Saskatchewan coinciding with International Economic Development Week.
Entrepreneurs, whether they need help for a food truck or setting a solar generation facility, are benefiting from supports available from groups like the Saskatchewan Indigenous Economic Development Network, or SIEDN.
Milton Tootoosis is the chair for SIEDN. He says they can provide supporting data to help promote community economic development, but a big problem remains start up dollars.
