Norbram is proud to spotlight an event that is shaping the future of Ontario’s infrastructure and fostering meaningful partnerships across the province — Building Together: Indigenous Business and the Infrastructure Opportunity, taking place September 10, 2025, from 9 AM to 4 PM at The Quay, 100 Queens Quay East, 3rd Floor.
With billions of dollars being invested into energy, transit, and resource projects — including the groundbreaking $3B Indigenous Opportunities Fund — Ontario’s infrastructure growth is accelerating. However, success depends on more than funding. It requires genuine collaboration with Indigenous communities from the very start. Without this, projects risk delays, mistrust, and missed opportunities.
This Indigenous Business Summit brings together an influential cross-section of Indigenous leaders, infrastructure developers, energy providers, policymakers, and investors for a full day of connection, discussion, and action. Attendees will explore how procurement processes, policy development, and project delivery models must evolve to create equitable, sustainable, and successful outcomes.
Key Topics Include:
Transforming Partnership Models – Moving from transactional agreements to long-term, trust-based collaborations.
Strengthening Indigenous Supply Chains & Talent Pipelines – Building capacity and creating scalable strategies for growth.
Procurement That Works – Aligning infrastructure delivery with Indigenous priorities to ensure shared success.
A Shared Energy Future – Integrating reconciliation into Ontario’s climate and clean energy transition.
Who Should Attend:
This event is designed for:
Infrastructure & Energy Developers – Leaders in transit, utilities, construction, nuclear, and renewable sectors.
Indigenous Business & Economic Development Leaders – Chiefs, Indigenous-owned businesses, and economic development corporations.

Technology & Workforce Innovators – Companies advancing clean technology, modular construction, and Indigenous talent development initiatives.
Through keynote presentations, dynamic panel discussions, and curated networking sessions, participants will leave with actionable strategies for building partnerships that go beyond the surface — driving both economic growth and reconciliation in Ontario.
