How can the City of Vaughan enhance the programs and supports available to Black entrepreneurs and business owners?

The City's Economic Development department strives to make Vaughan a place where entrepreneurship, business, tourism and art can prosper and evolve by identifying opportunities for growth and reducing barriers to investment and job creation.

The City is conducting a study to assess the effectiveness of current programs and supports for Black entrepreneurs and business owners in Vaughan and identify opportunities for new or improved programming to address remaining challenges and unmet needs.

Your voice matters
The findings of this survey will be used to better understand the composition, size and geographic location of Black-led businesses in Vaughan, and identify ways the City can help these businesses to flourish.

The full survey will take approximately 20 minutes to complete, but you will be given the option to skip some sections of the survey if you're not interested in completing them. As you complete the survey, your responses will be saved, allowing you to pause and return later to finish the rest. The survey will be available until 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 25.

Your privacy is important
Responses will be kept confidential and analyzed in aggregate to identify trends and needs across the Black business community. However, certain information, such as your business name, contact details and sector, may be used to build a public business directory to help promote Black businesses in Vaughan. Participation in the directory is completely optional, and you will be asked to provide your consent within the survey.

If you require an alternative format or need assistance understanding any content in this survey, please contact Jason Adade, Economic Development Officer at Jason.Adade@vaughan.ca or 905-832-2281, ext.7787.
