Growing an Existing Business — Joint Economic Development Initiative Growing an Existing Business Indigenous Business Accelerator Program “I can’t give JEDI enough praise. They were one of the few places that actually believed in me and got behind me. They did so much to support me. I had done this for a long time, but I just needed that extra little push, I almost didn’t really believe in my art, but they helped me so much to believe in myself. JEDI was a big supporter even when I was just small and setting up at pow wows. They would come and buy little gifts to give out at plenaries; now they invite me to be at the plenaries.” — Ursula Bear, Owner of Bear Necessities The Joint Economic Development Initiative (JEDI) Indigenous Business Accelerator Program assists existing and Community-owned businesses.
