Across Indian Country, more tribes are supporting their citizens in starting and growing small businesses. Through hundreds of workshops, the IDRS Acorn Project has seen that many aspiring entrepreneurs have the drive to succeed—but often struggle with one big question: What kind of business should I start?

This 1-hour webinar is designed to help you answer that question. You’ll explore how successful Native entrepreneurs identify business ideas rooted in their skills, hobbies, cultural and natural resources, and community needs. We’ll also introduce practical techniques to help you develop creative thinking skills and train your mind to be more observant, analytical, and innovative.

Whether you’re still exploring ideas or ready to take your first step toward entrepreneurship, this session will help you uncover business opportunities that align with who you are and the values of your community.
