La BDC travaille depuis longtemps avec des entrepreneur·ses autochtones et apprécie leur histoire, leur culture et leurs contributions uniques au Canada. Nous sommes solidaires de tous les peuples autochtones et nous nous engageons à les écouter, à apprendre d'eux et à agir en faveur de la réconciliation

L'équipe de la banque, qui compte 2 900 employé·es, soutient les entrepreneur·ses dans tous les secteurs d'activité et à tous les stades de développement, à partir de 123 centres d'affaires répartis au Canada, ainsi qu'en ligne sur le site La BDC, dont le siège social est situé à Montréal, a pour mission d'assurer la réussite durable des entrepreneur·ses canadien·nes depuis sa fondation en 1944. Elle est consciente qu'une entreprise ne se résume pas à des dollars et à des cents.

La BDC a pour objectif de donner à une nation de rêveurs et de gens d'action les moyens de construire un avenir meilleur pour tous. Leurs objectifs stratégiques visent à aider les entrepreneur·ses canadien·nes à créer des entreprises solides et résilientes et, ce faisant, encourager la prospérité, l'inclusivité et la position concurrentielle du Canada. C'est dans ce contexte que la BDC lance un appel de candidatures pour le poste de directeur·trice général·e du Fonds pour les entrepreneur·ses noir·es, qui supervise un fonds d'investissement de 100 millions de dollars visant spécifiquement à accroître et à soutenir le nombre d'entreprises dirigées par des personnes noires au Canada.
