Call for Papers: Papers should focus on the conference main theme and
related topics such as financing of Indigenous Entrepreneurship,

multilateral agencies and NGOs in promoting indigenous entrepreneurship.

	The website also contains information about registration and
sponsorship opportunities. Sandia Pueblo's new Resort and Casino is
hosting the Conference, and the website also contains reservation
information for your stay at this stunning new tribally-owned resort.

	A major part of the entertainment at IIBEC will be IndigeNOW, an
international evening of contemporary Indigenous music. Please ask any
interested contemporary Indigenous musicians in any genre to contact
Gordon Bronitsky as soon as possible.

	Another key component of IIBEC will be an International Indigenous
Business Expo in which Indigenous businesspeople, entrepreneurs,
communities and regions can showcase their experience, products,
tourism, and more.  Again, please contact Gordon Bronitsky as soon as
possible if you are interested in being an exhibitor.

	We also hope to work with Conference participants to create an
International Indigenous Business and Entrepreneurship Association.

	We hope to see you in New Mexico in June!
