Join us for the Second Annual Saskatchewan Energy & Natural Resources Forum, hosted by the Saskatchewan First Nations Natural Resource Centre of Excellence (the Centre)  in association with Deloitte. This three-day event is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to engage with financial sector and business leaders, government officials, and international stakeholders as we explore the transformative potential of First Nations’ leadership in North America’s energy transition.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The Forum will gather domestic and international thought leaders to discuss innovative approaches that braid First Nations’ Inherent and Treaty Rights with the development of future energy and natural resource projects. Discussions will focus on four key themes:

• Major Project Equity & Ownership – Advancing economic partnerships and investment opportunities.
• Workforce Development – Building capacity and creating pathways to energy and resource careers.
• Leadership in Continental Value Chains – Strengthening First Nations’ role in North American energy and resource markets.
• Cultural & Environmental Sustainability and Stewardship – Honoring traditions while driving sustainable development.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Wherever you hail from, you’ll feel the specialness of this land. sâskwatôn (Saskatoon) is built on Treaty 6 Territory and The Homeland of The Metis. A traditional meeting ground, gathering place, and traveling route to the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene, and Dakota, this land is sacred. We acknowledge all the many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked these lands for centuries in the past and the imprints we'll make together going forward. We pay our respect to this land of incredible beauty. As we reaffirm our relationship with one another and commit to building strong, lasting partnerships, we are so grateful for the sacrifices made by the Indigenous community. We give thanks for our opportunity to thrive on these traditional lands and know that you will feel at home here, too.
