PARO collaborates to empower women, strengthen small business, and promote community economic development across Ontario. We focus on Growing Women’s Companies, Accessing New Growth Opportunities, and Expanding Access to Export Markets. Our Women’s B2B Database supports all three of these pillars. Our directory of women-owned businesses – and those of Indigenous women in particular – help promote highly skilled women in Northern Ontario and across the province and connect them with other businesses that can benefit from their products and services.
