Description

Tribal communities and economies continue to grow, develop, and change. American Indian nations, governments, and business increasingly look to incentivize and leverage an expanding culture of commercial entrepreneurship and innovation to make it happen.

In this free webinar, experts and experienced professionals discuss how tribal entrepreneurs are developing successful reservation business enterprises, catalyzing and diversifying tribal economies, increasing tribal government capacity, and driving transformation in their communities.

Who is the current generation of tribal entrepreneurs, and what does tribal entrepreneurship look like in reservation economies and communities today?

What does it take to develop, manage, and sustain successful business enterprises on American Indian reservations?

What are the conditions under which tribal entrepreneurship flourishes, and what can we learn from real-world examples of success?

How can tribal and non-tribal leaders develop, implement, and enhance the legal, regulatory, revenue, and enterprise structures that catalyze and support reservation businesses?

What hurdles do tribal entrepreneurs and tribal economies face, and what are the practical steps needed to overcome them?

This live webinar will also include an opportunity for questions and dialogue.

Moderator: Steve Light, Visiting Professor, Indian Nations Gaming and Governance Program at the William S. Boyd School of Law at UNLV and coauthor of Indian Gaming and Tribal Sovereignty: The Casino Compromise.
