From the invaluable mentor match to the dedicated team tirelessly refining my business plan, they've been there every step of the way. As an immigrant and first-time entrepreneur, the road was rocky, especially, navigating paperwork that seemed endless. But through every hurdle, Michka and the team stood by my side, offering not just industry insights and skills but unwavering belief in my vision.

When I finally secured my [Futurpreneur] loan, the joy was palpable, but seeing Michka's tenfold happiness, was the true testament to the bonds we've formed and the victories we've shared together. 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.

John D’Or Prairie, Alberta Because the people at Futurpreneur are passionate about the future of entrepreneurship within the country, they believe that entrepreneurs have the power to change the world. Futurpreneur is very close to my heart, not just because it gave me the money I needed, but because it promotes entrepreneurship.

They understand how important small business is to our society and how many people’s lives are touched by it. Futurpreneur provides financial support, but the team cares about me beyond my startup. They invested and encouraged me to succeed, and for that I am very grateful.
