Feel supported and seen
A healthy economy is one where all residents thrive. We proudly serve Indigenous entrepreneurs, businesses, and communities in their pursuit of prosperity and economic wellbeing.
By creating and endorsing culturally respectful resources, programs, and initiatives, we build pathways to partnerships, amplify Indigenous voices, and provide access to invaluable tools and growth-focused funding.
Let’s make economic reconciliation a reality
Recognizing a history of economic and other injustices, and guided by TRC Call to Action #92, the Saskatoon Region is committed to including Indigenous peoples, businesses, and communities in all facets of economic activity. Indigenous ways of knowing and ways of living are an essential part of what makes our region’s economy diverse, resilient, and attractive.
Your business deserves to SOAR
SOAR is a signature SREDA program offering eligible Indigenous entrepreneurs up to $30K to grow their business.
First Nations land holdings and reserves
The Saskatoon Region has the most urban reserves in Canada, making us an ideal destination for investment and growth. These partnerships provide employment opportunities, enhance government relationships, and enhance an already strong economy for Indigenous and non-Indigenous residents.
