Promoting Business History in Canada: Encouraging Research, Archiving, and Collaboration
We're aiming to encourage more Canadians to study enterprise in Canada, help build up and keep organized and open business archives, give those studying business history a way to chat about their research with those employed in business, get research projects going about relevant topics and supply support for that research, and essentially promote the study of business history in Canada.
Anyone interested can join our group - individuals, firms, and groups.
