Queer Atlantic Business Hub Launch
Join us from 1:00 to 4:30 for hands-on workshops that dig into the state of queer entrepreneurship, spark big ideas through a high-energy World Café, and a showcase of Atlantic organizations supporting queer businesses.
Our Programs
Through different types of community engagement, you shared the challenges you face and the support you are looking for as 2SLGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs in Atlantic Canada:
Queer-Specific Resources
You’re looking for directories of queer-owned businesses, support specific to your sector, and mentorship from queer and trans folks with expertise.
Caregiving Support
You need dedicated support for queer working parents.
Peer Networks
You are looking to connect with one another at informal meetups and networking events. You want spaces to connect with other queer and trans entrepreneurs.
Affordable Expertise
You’re having a hard time finding business advice and mentorship you can afford and need accessible consulting and support services.
Rural Support
You are looking for robust support that reaches beyond urban centres and addresses the unique needs of rural queer and trans entrepreneurs.
Francophone Access
You need designated supports and services in French.
Connecting & Organizing
You have a shared interest in raising awareness of the unique challenges we face and advocating for the support we need.
