Land Acknowledgement
Interactive Ontario recognizes that its work, and the work of its community partners take place on traditional Indigenous territories across the province. We acknowledge that 46 treaties and other agreements cover the territory now called Ontario. We are thankful to be able to work and live in these territories. We are thankful to the First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people who have cared for these territories since time immemorial and who continue to contribute to the strength of Ontario and all communities across the province.
What We Do
We achieve this through government advocacy, business development opportunities, networking and knowledge-sharing events, research initiatives, professional and emerging talent development programs, community building among industry professionals, and meaningful partnerships with other organizations.
