Partner Events
2017-2018 Aboriginal Business Match and American Business Match events
The Aboriginal Business Match (ABM) connects a national network of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal decision makers to create opportunities for business, training, and employment. ABM employs sophisticated business matching technology for communities and the private sector to create up to 31 pre-scheduled appointments before they attend the show. These appointments level the playing field and keep the conversation focused and efficient, helping to determine next steps if a business match has been made or is possible. The 2.5-day hyper-productive experience eliminates geographic barriers, condenses time requirements and reduces costs. ABM provides the forum to distill potential into real deals.
Your industry sector is of significant interest to First Nation leaders in terms of business development and employment and training for the young demographic that makes up at least 50% of each Aboriginal community in Canada.
Upcoming 2018 ABM Canadian dates include:
- ABM East in Robinson-Huron Treaty Territory, Sudbury, ON August 27-29, 2018
- ABM Alberta in Treaty 6 Territory, Enoch, AB September 24-26, 2018
- ABM Lower Mainland in Kwanten, Katzie and Semiahmoo Territory, Langley, BC October 22-24, 2018
- ABM Prairies in Treaty 4 Territory and Homeland of the Métis, Regina, SK February 25-27, 2019
