Stan Knight is a proud member of Opaskwayak Cree Nation and the founder of Zachary Knight Enterprises and Inspector in a Box (IIAB)—two innovative ventures focused on transforming Indigenous housing and economic development across Canada. With a background in law enforcement, construction, insurance adjusting, and project management, Stan brings a unique and practical perspective to the challenges faced by First Nations communities. 
 
Through Inspector in a Box, Stan created a scalable, tech-enabled program that empowers Indigenous communities to take control of their housing inspections, asset management, and funding applications. The IIAB model includes remote inspections, local capacity-building, and full wraparound training that opens doors for Indigenous candidates to secure meaningful employment—locally or through relocation opportunities. 
 
Under Zachary Knight Enterprises, Stan expands this mission by offering consulting services, mentorship, and strategic partnerships that support self-determination, energy efficiency, and housing sustainability. ZKE also administers a scholarship fund to support the next generation of Indigenous leaders in construction, tech, and business. 
 
Stan is committed to creating For Indigenous, By Indigenous solutions that are rooted in sovereignty, resilience, and long-term impact. His work is not just about building homes—it’s about building futures.
