About the Podcast

Reconciliation in Business: Creating Partnerships, Prosperity, and Change

Reconciliation in Business is a podcast dedicated to exploring how the Canadian business landscape is being reshaped by reconciliation — not as a symbolic gesture, but as a powerful economic opportunity. Through in-depth interviews, storytelling, and real-world case studies, the show brings forward the voices of Indigenous entrepreneurs, innovators, corporate leaders, and community builders who are carving a new path toward shared prosperity.

At its heart, the podcast exists to answer one question:
What does real economic reconciliation look like, and how can businesses become part of it?

Our Purpose

Reconciliation cannot move forward without economic inclusion. Business is one of the strongest tools we have to empower communities, strengthen partnerships, and build a future where Indigenous and non-Indigenous people succeed together.

This program was created to:

  • Highlight success stories that prove reconciliation works

  • Share challenges honestly so others can learn and improve

  • Provide practical insights for businesses ready to take action

  • Amplify Indigenous leadership, innovation, and worldviews

  • Inspire bold partnerships that create measurable impact

The podcast positions reconciliation not as a compliance task or a checkbox, but as a driver of innovation, competitive advantage, and long-term economic growth.

Themes We Explore

The podcast covers a wide range of topics, including:

  • Procurement with Purpose — integrating Indigenous suppliers and value chains

  • Indigenous Entrepreneurship — innovation and impact from the ground up

  • Corporate Leadership — how executives embed reconciliation into governance

  • Finance & Investment — pathways for capital to reach Indigenous ventures

  • Innovation & Technology — together bridging Indigenous knowledge & emerging tech

  • Workforce Inclusion — hiring, developing, and advancing Indigenous talent

  • Partnerships that Work — collaborations that produce real, lasting results

  • Beyond Compliance — moving from statements to authentic relationships

Every topic is explored with both courage and humility — acknowledging the historical realities while looking forward to what’s possible.

Why This Podcast Matters

Reconciliation is often talked about as a social responsibility — but in this space, we uncover why it’s also a powerful business strategy. Companies that build strong Indigenous partnerships experience:

  • Fresh innovation

  • Expanded markets

  • Stronger teams

  • Better governance

  • Increased trust

  • Long-term sustainability

Reconciliation in business isn’t only the right thing to do —
it’s good business.

This podcast shows you how and why.

  • Inspired by what’s possible

  • Grounded in Indigenous perspectives and knowledge
