The Future of Indigenous Business Banquet (FIBB)

Hosted by the University of Manitoba Indigenous Commerce Students, FIBB is the premiere event to discuss the future of Indigenous business in Manitoba. Our dinner is a great opportunity to network with talented students, instructors, and Indigenous business leaders. Following dinner, a panel of leaders representing all four pillars of our community will provide a proactive insight into the future of Manitoba’s Indigenous community and workforce, while also helping students and faculty have the important conversations about Indigenous experiences and what it means to be on Treaty 1 territory.

Last year FIBB attracted over 200 students, instructors, and business leaders and was declared an astounding success by all attendees. This year, we are inviting more parts of our community to attend and discuss how we can help drive our communities throughout the province to build successful partnerships.
