The Indigenous Business Award (IBA) program is strengthened by partners who demonstrate a long-term commitment to Indigenous economic growth. ONNI is one such partner—an organization whose multi-year support reflects a shared belief in the power of Indigenous-led businesses and the importance of building a more inclusive and resilient economy in British Columbia.
With building at the core of their work, ONNI is a real estate development company employing thousands of people, with a mission to plan for the future and give back to the communities they serve.
Through their continued partnership, ONNI has played an important role in supporting the IBA program’s mission to recognize, celebrate, and elevate Indigenous entrepreneurs and businesses across the province. This sustained investment helps ensure that Indigenous business excellence is not only acknowledged but meaningfully supported through increased visibility, credibility, and opportunity.
ONNI’s multi-year commitment speaks to the value they place on relationship-building and cross-cultural collaboration. By standing alongside Indigenous entrepreneurs and the IBA program over multiple years, ONNI demonstrates an understanding that economic reconciliation is achieved through consistency, respect, and shared purpose.
The Indigenous Business Award program exists because of partners like ONNI—organizations that recognize Indigenous businesses as key contributors to a diverse and growing economy and understand that long-term impact is created through sustained support.
We thank ONNI for their leadership, partnership, and ongoing commitment to Indigenous business excellence. Your support continues to help build Indigenous entrepreneurship and contributes to a more inclusive economic future for British Columbia.
