The Ethnocultural Diversity Entrepreneurship Day attracts more than 120 participants from the entrepreneurial ecosystem of the Laval, Lanaudière, and Laurentides regions.
Montreal, March 18, 2024,
As part of its Inter-Action culturelle program and with financial support from the Ministry of Immigration, Francisation and Integration (MIFI), Entreprendre ici is proud to announce the Ethnocultural Diversity Entrepreneurship Day, scheduled for March 28, 2024, at the Le Palace Convention Centre in Laval. This major event aims to highlight the contributions of entrepreneurs from ethnocultural diverse backgrounds and their impact on economic growth across Quebec’s regions.
With the participation of over 120 stakeholders from the entrepreneurial ecosystem—including entrepreneurs, entrepreneurship support organizations, and representatives from the socio-economic sectors of the Laval, Lanaudière, and Laurentides regions—this event promises to be a unique opportunity for exchange and sharing. Local and provincial elected officials, along with other key stakeholders, will also be present to support this initiative, which aims to promote diversity and inclusion within Quebec’s entrepreneurial landscape.
The event will offer a series of activities (conferences, testimonials, panels and networking sessions), with the aim of strengthening links between entrepreneurs and stakeholders in the entrepreneurial economy, and promoting inclusive practices to better support entrepreneurs from ethnocultural diversity.
The Ethnocultural Diversity Entrepreneurship Day is a unique opportunity to celebrate diversity and innovation within our entrepreneurial community. We invite the media and government representatives to join us for this important event, organized in collaboration with Laval Économique, Connexion Laurentides, Lanaudière Économique, and TD Bank.
