University of Guelph and IndigenousTech.ai Mentorship Program for Indigenous Youth

IndigenousTech.ai Corporation (IndigenousTech.ai) is is one of the corporations inside of the Forrest Green Group of Companies. All Forrest Green corporations perform web development, solution development, project management and professional services in the technology industry. IndigenousTech.ai has become certified in Ontario and to our knowledge is Canada’s first Indigenous-owned consumer credit reporting agency. IndigenousTech.ai’s mission is to train and hire Indigenous youth on-reserve to increase self-sufficiency, own-source revenue and economic development. To this end, IndigenousTech.ai conducts summer mentorship programs for Indigenous youth focused on financial, digital and accounting literacy. This summer mentorship program is designed to achieve IndigenousTech’s mission described above. Success of the mentorship program requires the contribution from knowledgeable personnel in the fields of technology, business, finance and accounting. This collaboration with the University of Guelph will enable IndigenousTech.ai to conduct a successful Indigenous mentorship program and grow further.
