AIIC 2023 CONFERENCE THEME
EQUITABLE ECONOMY
Our 6th Annual Arctic Indigenous Investment Conference will highlight Indigenous development corporations and businesses along with partners from all sectors of the northern economy. The goal of the 2023 AIIC Conference is to continue our collective work towards true economic reconciliation by connecting people from across the Arctic to share success stories, support entrepreneurship, develop stronger partnerships, and forge new relationships. When Indigenous businesses—from large corporations to individual artisans—work collaboratively across the North, we can build diverse and prosperous economies, communities, and futures for all.
