The APEC-Canada Growing Business Partnership, funded by the Government of Canada and managed by the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada, aims to strengthen micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) across the Asia-Pacific region. The program promotes inclusive and sustainable growth by empowering entrepreneurs—especially women and youth—with the skills, resources, and networks to succeed in the digital economy. In collaboration with Kenan Foundation Asia, APEC Canada has supported regional initiatives that enhance SME competitiveness, foster innovation, and build resilient business ecosystems.
