Seven Generation Business Plan Competition – 7G BPC<\/h3>\n\n
\n
\n Building Tomorrow’s Indigenous Entrepreneurs Today<\/span>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\"7G<\/p>\n

Overview<\/h3>\n

CAIED has a commitment to helping create initiatives and entrepreneurial endeavors among tribal communities. Thus, the Seven Generation\u00a0Business Plan Competition (7G BPC) was created. The Business Plan Competition seeks to train and support the next generation of Native entrepreneurs and business owners. The importance of developing business ideas and plans positions Native communities to be at the forefront of economic sovereignty.<\/p>\n

In prior years CAIED has partnered with the Native American Business Incubator Network, Partnership with Native Americans, and Kitchell Construction to host the Seven Generation Business Plan Competition.<\/p>\n

This event is\u00a0sponsored by the Johnson Scholarship Foundation<\/a>.
