We strive to build a world that recognizes the immense value and contribution that immigrant entrepreneurs bring to society, where they thrive, drive innovation, create jobs, and enrich Canadian communities, while fostering a nation that embraces diversity, cultivates inclusion, and sets the global standard for immigrant entrepreneurship.
We believe conscious investment, programming and advocacy in immigrant founders is essential for fueling Canada's economic growth.
Working together with regional economic development agencies, community organizations, private and public sector, we bring business incubation, acceleration and succession programs designed with the specific needs of immigrant entrepreneurs in mind.
Our mission at IEC is to engage, connect, and empower Canadian immigrants through comprehensive education, dedicated advocacy, and a commitment to building opportunities for acquiring, starting, and scaling ventures. We are the driving force behind a movement that propels immigrant entrepreneurs to the forefront of Canada's entrepreneurial ecosystems and beyond.
