- Scalable and future-proof infrastructure
- Community-driven design and implementation
- Collaboration with private and public sector leaders
Why It Matters
Broadband access is more than just the internet - it's education, health care, safety, job creation, and self-determination.
Join us in building a connected North.
About Broadband North
Broadband North is a nation-building initiative driven by the urgent need to deliver world-class broadband connectivity to Indigenous and Northern communities. Our model is rooted in Indigenous leadership, economic reconciliation, and long-term infrastructure planning.
We understand that broadband is the backbone of modern economies and essential services. Yet too many Indigenous communities remain disconnected or underserved.
We aim to change that - permanently.
What Sets Us Apart:
- Indigenous Governance: Our projects are led by Indigenous leaders and decision-makers.
- Community-Centered: Every solution is co-developed with the community it serves.
- Economic Development Focused: Connectivity is a tool for prosperity - our work helps spark entrepreneurship, education, and innovation.
- Trusted Advisory & Technical Expertise: Backed by some of the leading experts in Indigenous finance, infrastructure, and telecommunications.
We work with First Nations governments, federal and provincial partners, telecom companies, and community champions to deliver sustainable connectivity solutions.
Broadband is a right. Together, we're making it a reality.

For Indigenous Leadership
Indigenous-Led. Community-Driven. Future-Focused.
Broadband North was built to serve Indigenous Nations - with governance structures, ownership models, and revenue pathways that respect sovereignty and self-determination.
Our team works directly with Chiefs, Councils, Band Administrators, and economic development corporations to plan, fund, and build community broadband networks.
Our Commitment to First Nations:
- Local control and benefit from broadband infrastructure
- Employment and training opportunities for community members
- Revenue-sharing and reinvestment in Nation priorities
- Full transparency and long-term support
We Know the Landscape:
Our advisors have worked with dozens of Nations on infrastructure, finance, capital raises, and intergovernmental negotiations. We're here to make connectivity a tool for empowerment, not dependency.
If your Nation is exploring broadband or wants to expand or reclaim control over an existing network - we're ready to support your vision.
