More than just advice

To create sustainable and independent communities, a strong First Nations economy that promotes empowerment, prosperity, success, and intergenerational wealth creation is essential.

More First Nations groups are seeking commercial solutions to navigate challenges and achieve their goals. We help to improve First Nations financial literacy and, with their informed participation, develop internal controls, systems, and procedures in their corporations.

We have a wealth of knowledge and experience in collaborating with First Nations parties to effectively manage, govern, and deliver commercial strategies for their clients and communities.

Ensuring you’re always ready for what’s next

Nexia supports First Nations communities and individuals in achieving their commercial and community goals.

Our services help to expand workforces and supply chains to include more First Nations people and businesses.

Working with you, we can help businesses understand and navigate the Indigenous Procurement Policy to source First Nations suppliers effectively.
