MCAD

From supporting Arctic youth entrepreneurship in Nunavut to advancing artificial intelligence, climate innovation, and resilience in Manitoba, and promoting sustainable agriculture and food security in Northwestern Ontario, the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) has been a key collaborator in our work. Through the contributions of MCAD’s students, faculty, and researchers—particularly from the Creative Entrepreneurship and Master of Arts in Creative Leadership programs—our community-based initiatives have gained vital mentorship, creative strategy, and cross-sector innovation. These collaborations have helped us tackle real-world challenges through design thinking, social impact leadership, and arts-driven entrepreneurship. We’re proud to recognize these initiatives as “Made with MCAD,” reflecting the meaningful and ongoing impact of this powerful partnership across Canada and beyond.
