WEDCo attended the 2026 Indigenous Business Forum with Fredericton Chamber of Commerce, Joint Economic Development Initiative, and Ignite on Thursday. It was a great opportunity to bring together Indigenous and non-Indigenous businesses, entrepreneurs, and organizations. Connecting with the community on opportunities, projects, and partnerships where we can all work together to invest in our communities and our people.
