If you attended CCAB’s 40th Anniversary Awards Gala, you were the first to hear the big news: our name has changed to Canadian Council for Indigenous Business, and we’ve refreshed our brand. But our brand refresh is more than a logo. It's about reaffirming our dedication to supporting Indigenous businesses and fostering economic growth in Indigenous communities. We will make it as easy as possible for CCIB members to ease into the new brand logo and name. Members are encouraged to reach out to marketing@ccab.com (soon to be marketing@ccib.ca) with any questions or comments or to your direct contacts at CCIB! Special thanks to the Indigenous-owned firm that assisted us with our refresh, pipikwan pêhtâkwan! Such a talented and wonderful team! Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gATXQKab
