Entrepreneurship Empowerment Program

Africa Centre’s Entrepreneurial Support initiatives aim at creating opportunity for building a larger business community in Alberta through leading a full-frontal assault on the systematic barriers that limit the prospects for aspiring Black entrepreneurs. 

Take Advantage of the BDC Entrepreneurship Learning Program

Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) knows that Black entrepreneurs are making a significant contribution to Canadian communities and the economy, but we are also aware that you face unique barriers that prevent you from achieving your full potential.

BDC is here to help. That’s why we’ve created, exclusively for the Africa Centre, the Entrepreneurship Learning Program, where you will discover a learning platform that acts as a one-stop shop for you to better understand, manage and develop your business. The platform offers you access to online courses and other useful resources designed to help you succeed, whether your business is just starting out or is already well established.
