Abstract: The release of time-series data spanning from 2005 to 2018 has provided insights into the trends and characteristics of Indigenous-owned businesses in Canada (Gueye et al., 2022a). These data enabled the identification of key developments, including overall growth in the number of Indigenous-owned businesses, a notable shift toward younger business owners and an increased presence of women in Indigenous business leadership. However, this period also exposed challenges, since compared with the 2005 level, the number of Indigenous-owned businesses grew faster than that of non-Indigenous-owned businesses in earlier years but slower in more recent years.
