Redbird Circle will be delivering twelve online workshops on the topic of two-eyed seeing in entrepreneurship. The workshops will offer participants an opportunity to learn about the duality in entrepreneurship and innovation, and invite them to think in new ways about themselves, their community, and our connection to the spirit of the land. The workshops aim to build traditional knowledge, community, facilitate partnerships and mentorships, and build pathways to success for Indigenous entrepreneurs.
