Indigenous Economic Development Corporations are the economic arms of many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities in Canada. In Alaska, a similar structure exists through the Alaska Native Corporations. These economic entities are major drivers of economic growth and innovation in Indigenous communities.

Our co-hosts Paris Molokwu-Ogwuda Jr. and Rebecca Rogers sit down with Clint Davis, President and CEO of Nunasi Corporation, and Debbie Atuk, President and CEO at Kootznoowoo, Inc., to learn more about how these important economic instruments function. They discuss the management structure of Indigenous Development Corporations, the involvement of non-Indigenous actors, challenges faced by these organizations, and more.
