Join the Canada Infrastructure Bank (CIB) on December 19, 2024, from 3:00-5:00 pm for an interactive session on how to partner with the Bank on energy projects – from wind to solar and energy storage.

Through these initiatives, the CIB lends to new infrastructure projects that are in partnership with, and for the benefit of, Indigenous communities to reduce their infrastructure gap and promote economic participation. In this session, you will engage with the CIB’s investment experts to learn about the CIB offerings, particularly the IEI loan which provides communities with access to capital to purchase equity stakes in infrastructure projects in which the CIB is also investing. The session will be offered in person at First Nations University of Canada, and virtual through a link provided by FNPA upon registration. This workshop aims to build financial capacity, foster partnerships, and provide actionable insights to support Indigenous-led initiatives that drive economic growth and sustainability.
