Under the economic development initiative, or EDI, we work with the Manitoba's Conseil de développement économique, Alberta's Conseil de développement économique and Saskatchewan's Conseil économique et coopératif. Those organizations use the funds allocated for EDI programs to support entrepreneurs, francophone immigrants, and communities, to build the capacities of the communities and create an entrepreneurship ecosystem.
With those projects, the organizations are able to offer training in finance, for learning how to develop networking or knowing how to present a business to investors. These activities have been supported thanks to part of our investment in francophone economic development organizations.
