Growing Indigenous Enterprise and Business
Advisory
i2i Global is actively sourcing and connecting capital on behalf of First Nations (traditional) owners of lands & seas, to enable them to take equity stakes in large projects and going concerns that happen on their country.
Driven by international standards such as ESG and FPIC, as well as investor demand, First Nations groups (in Australia and across the Indo Pacific) will be economic proponents – rather than supplicants – and they will share in economic benefits and wealth that is generated on their country.
Consulting
i2i Global applies a strict customer-centric and commercial approach to developing economic resilience and prosperity for First Nations entreprenuers and communities.
We are live on client contracts throughout mainland Australia, in the Torres Strait Islands, and in the Indo-Pacific.
The current Australian Federal Government has committed to "First Nations perspectives [being] at the heart of Australian foreign policy" and i2i Global is a leader in this space.

Growing Indigenous Enterprise and Business
Trade and Investment
When you have interests in 57% of Australia, Indigenous success in matters of investment and finance is central to Indigenous futures. There are trade opportunities in export markets for Indigenous businesses. Indigenous business leaders are seeking foreign direct investment to realise opportunities on-country. Let us help to realise that opportunity.
Enterprise Development
When Indigenous leaders seek out a capability partner to build their company or economic strategy they turn to i2i Global. Business growth is rarely a smooth journey. We know this and we know how to support Clients to keep moving forward when faced with bumps in the road.
Building for Growth
We support Clients, both non-Indigenous and Indigenous, to develop, progress and execute their plans for growth. There are many emergent opportunities in Indigenous Australia. When you need an advisor to take these next steps to achieving growth then we're here ready to help.
Research, Evaluation, Data & Insight
Fresh thinking and innovation is directly linked to good quality data. Information and insight matters to your investment choices. Our ability to furnish market research and intelligence is unique in Indigenous Australia. We have access to Indigenous MEL professionals, researchers and business thinkers unmatched by any other firm.
Indigenous Engagement
We help clients to navigate complexity, build rapport, attain the right information and make considered investments that generate returns and achieve impact. We're all about the opportunity and the possibilities.
Public Policy
Doing public policy and implementation is not an easy thing. Indigenous Affairs adds to the complexity. We're here to help. We work with public sector leaders to bring new policies into practice, to support existing policy frameworks to meet their objectives, and to review and evaluate for improvement and evolution.

Extending Indigenous Interests.
i2i Global is an active researcher and collaborator. Insight informs our strategic outlook. We bring that information, thinking, insight and innovation to our Clients.
The century ahead will be an exciting time for Indigenous Australians.
Our research indicates that Indigenous Australia is building to a $100 billon economy. Indigenous Australians have resumed active interests in 57% of the continent of Australia. After being excluded from trade, export opportunities and investment for 234 years Indigenous inclusions in trade arrangements will unlock billions of dollars in economic activity. This creates opportunities in key growth industries.
It's our task to prepare Clients for these changing times to realise the opportunities, to de-risk the development pipeline and to support your team to create and capture value.
