This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Indigenous Biz Con V will mark five years of connection, collaboration and Indigenous business leadership at a three-day conference at Potawatomi Hotel & Casino in Milwaukee Oct. 11-13.

Hosted by Indigenous Business Group, this year’s conference, themed “Indigenous Renaissance,” will convene Tribal leaders, entrepreneurs, corporate partners, innovators, government agencies, investors and Indigenous-owned businesses to explore new opportunities for growth, collaboration and generational wealth. The gathering will focus on strengthening Native-owned businesses and building partnerships with government and corporate leaders that can create long-term economic opportunities for Indigenous communities.

“As the theme suggests, we’re at a pivotal moment in history in which Indigenous businesses are uniquely poised for growth and revival,” said Indigenous Business Group co-founder Rob Pero, a member of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. “This event creates space for us to share knowledge, build relationships and create the opportunities that will define the next generation of Indigenous business leadership.”

Attendees are invited to start the conference experience with a tour of Indigenous Milwaukee and a Packers-Bears Watch Party & Opening Gathering on Oct. 11. For a full schedule of the three-day event, click here.

“It’s been amazing to see this event grow and mature over five years,” said Pero. “The themes and the guest speakers might change, but one thing is always the same—you’ll leave this space feeling inspired, connected and prepared to create a better economic future for your community.”
