## Our core offerings

## Futurpreneur success stories

So many young entrepreneurs who are Indigenous can find it a bit daunting to approach an organization they don’t know much about, right? But, I tell them, Futurpreneur really made an effort. I felt my message and my business idea were very well-received. I got a lot of feedback, a lot of encouragement. I felt welcome.
