Indigenous corporation

An Indigenous corporation is a legal entity established by Indigenous communities or groups to manage and promote their cultural, economic, and social interests. It provides a structured way for Indigenous people to own, operate, and benefit from businesses, land, or services. These corporations support self-determination, preserve cultural heritage, and facilitate economic development, often working within legal frameworks to ensure community leadership and representation. Essentially, they serve as a formal organization that helps Indigenous groups manage their assets and affairs in a way that aligns with their values and priorities.
