Organized by the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), Small Business Week serves as an annual celebration of entrepreneurship.
As we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic into an uncertain global economy, small business owners, like others, are forced to adapt. Despite the limited resources small business owners have, they are persevering through the challenges of the current economic conditions and trends.
So, let's celebrate the resilience, passion, and ambition of Canada’s dreamers and doers during the week of Oct 16-Oct 22.

Testimonials
"Participation in the Richmond Chamber of Commerce has proven to be an excellent way to connect with, contribute to, and learn from the Richmond business community. As a young business professional myself, the Chamber of Commerce has directly impacted my growth and success at Novex. This is largely due to the hardworking staff who put on numerous events and are always available to offer their support to members."
