NationTalk Welcomes Deloitte to its Partner Program

Toronto, ON, December 20th, 2015 – NationTalk is pleased to announce that Deloitte has joined its NationTalk Partner Program. As a partner, Deloitte will now have unparalleled access to First Nations, Metis and Inuit communities, public, private organizations and Industry stakeholders daily through NationTalk’s Indigenous Information Economy Network.

“We are very enthusiastic about this new business relationship”, said Don Barraclough, President & CEO of NationTalk. Deloitte’s reputation is well established worldwide in the financial spheres and has assisted many Indigenous businesses, communities and organizations and has built capacity in finance, governance, trusts and economic development to name only a few”.

NationTalk’s Partner Program will directly connect Deloitte with the Indigenous community in Canada, via a micro site and frequent branding opportunities on the NationTalk website and Morning Brief, which will allow Deloitte to take advantage of the network’s over 11 million impressions yearly. This new micro site will be used to showcase and archive all Deloitte Indigenous related media releases; events; tenders; employment opportunities in text, audio and video formats.

“Deloitte is committed to assisting Canada’s Indigenous businesses and organizations to build capacity in finance, governance, trusts and economic development,” said Lisa Ethans, National Aboriginal Client Services Practice Leader of Deloitte Canada. “Deloitte’s team includes a group of experienced advisors dedicated to Indigenous issues, with a comprehensive approach specifically tailored to the needs of each community.”

The logos of all participants of the NationTalk Partner Program appear on the top of NationTalk’s daily, nationally distributed Morning Brief as well as on the National site and its new regional sites.
