What does it really take to build a business in the Yukon? Join us for a candid conversation with three northern entrepreneurs who’ve lived it — the wins, the pivots, and the tough calls.
The North presents a unique set of challenges — isolation, limited infrastructure, and access barriers — but it also offers incredible opportunities: tight-knit community support, creative problem-solving, and a growing ecosystem of resources.

We’ll dig into the realities of entrepreneurship in the Yukon: what’s working, what’s missing, and what we need to make it easier for more founders to thrive here.
No fluff — just real stories, shared lessons, and open conversation about building in the North.
We will have Shakiba Kazemi Founder of Shak’s Chocolates as well as Camilo Rivera Founder of Apprendo.
