Mission: To promote and support entrepreneurship
Why?
FPEI believes that entrepreneurial skills are essential for the economy’s ability to grow and generate employment.
Although entrepreneurship is not limited to starting a business, FPEI acknowledges that this is the most obvious and key example of entrepreneurship and that it’s the activity that requires the most encouragement and support. Moreover, FPEI believes that access to finance is a key barrier to entrepreneurship.
Therefore, its focus is to:
- alleviate the access to funding problem, and
- provide support to entrepreneurs to start up and scale up.
