The Aboriginal Business Development Program is intended to maximize Aboriginal people’s participation in the economy through business development. The program provides support to Aboriginal entrepreneurs for a range of activities including business planning, start-up, expansion and/or marketing. Through this Program, eligible majority-owned Aboriginal enterprises have access to financial assistance, business information and resource materials and advice regarding other possible sources of financing or business support. The level of support for a business project will depend on a range of factors including, but not limited to, the scale and scope of the development, financial history and projections, and availability of resources.
