Location

The capital of the Northwest Territories, Yellowknife, is a remarkably cosmopolitan city of roughly 21,000 people, including a large First Nations, Inuit and Métis population. Yellowknife serves as the commercial supply hub for projects and communities across the entire NWT, which more than doubles the size of the market.
With a committed, stable government dedicated to helping businesses succeed and the economy thrive, abundant resources and the interest of major development and tourist companies around the world, the Northwest Territories has incredible potential. Opportunities abound in tourism, technology, oil and gas, mining and more.
Joint venture developments between businesses and Indigenous groups who offer expertise and guidance are also common and growing in number.
