CIBPA Ottawa

In 1961, the Canadian Italian Business and Professional Association (CIBPA) was established in Ottawa as a focal point for the local Italian-Canadian business community. Since its inception, the organization has been a leader in the Italian community, co-ordinating the pursuit of common objectives and interests of Italian Canadian business and professional activities.

Today, CIBPA is a vibrant association that brings people together in an atmosphere that encourages the development of business and professional contacts while strengthening cultural awareness. CIBPA promotes the recreational, cultural, social, artistic, charitable, business and professional activities of Italian Canadians in the National Capital Region and also encourages the participation of Italian Canadians in the economic and public affairs of this region and Canada.

Our members represent a wide range of small and medium-sized businesses as well as large corporations and government bodies covering various sectors of the economy.
