NEI Louisiana’s hybrid sessions will focus on how businesses of all sizes can build economic resilience into their business model. The programming will be applicable to business nationwide, and it will also include several sessions focused on doing business in Louisiana, including working with local tribally owned casinos and the Louisiana Small Business Development Center. NEI Louisiana is funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Minority Business Development Agency.

NEIs also connect participants to existing resources available in their region by one-on-one business counseling/coaching and matchmaking services. All attendees will gain access to the National Center’s unique N2N (Native-to-Native) business network, as well as the National Center’s in-region procurement and technical assistance training, federal program and procurement coaching, and accessing capital via Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs).
