Foundations for Sustainable Business Development

Yukonstruct Society, 2180 2nd Avenue, Whitehorse

Resillience | Innovation | Collaboration

Whitehorse is a hub for innovation and Indigenous-led business in the North. Join us to explore how digital infrastructure, green energy, and community resilience can drive sustainable development in Yukon and Northern Norway.

Innovation and Resilience Across the Arctic

Whitehorse, the capital of Yukon, is the center of innovation, local and indigenous-owned businesses, and economic development in the northern regions. New technologies and digital infrastructure are required to further business development and strengthen local capacities. However, infrastructure shortages and energy insecurity threaten further development and limit the opportunities of the local populations.

Collaboration between Northern Norway and the Yukon focuses on the sustainable development of businesses through three foundations: digital infrastructure, green energy, and resilient communities.

Arctic Frontiers and The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Ottawa warmly welcome you to join us for this event. It is free to attend but registration is required for venue capacity and to receive the live recording.
