Join us as we bridge the digital divide and weave a new future for Indigenous entrepreneurship from the Pacific to the Great Lakes!.

In response to significant shifts in the way people do business, NMCC has pivoted to provide entrepreneurs with exciting opportunities to adapt and grow their businesses online. Our goal in technological training and upskilling is to bridge the digital divide and create training opportunities for our entrepreneurs and their communities.

To that end, we created IndigiWork, an Indigenous-led mobile platform connecting entrepreneurs with access to income earning opportunities in the gig-economy. The app is going to be foundational as we start our move into web3! Additionally, as an official Grow with Google partner, we’ll help owners gain the right skills to find jobs they want, advance supplemental careers and grow their businesses with certificates and specialized training.

The Future Is Indigenous Women (TFIIW) is a collaboration between Native Women Lead, New Mexico Community Capital and Roanhorse Consulting LLC. funded by the Equality Can’t Wait Challenge. Under TFIIW, we aim to support over 3,000 Indigenous women and meet them where they are in their entrepreneurial journey by 2024. Our goal is to build an inclusive, sustainable community of economically empowered Indigenous women who will continue to sustain families, communities, economies, Nations, and futures. We have a ripple effect of impact and are redefining wealth, success, and metrics of return on investment while upholding data sovereignty and stewardship.

Indigenous women interested in entrepreneurship now have a culturally grounded and responsive space to come for equitable access to capital, business development resources, wealth creation resources, and financial and career opportunities to scale their businesses in community.

Studies have shown that small business owners and entrepreneurs are more successful when they are in a well-supported and supportive network. We actively support our participants through a facilitated network.

This Community of Practice Network, for all graduates and current participants of the Native Entrepreneur in Residence (NEIR) program and the Financial & Business Basics (FBB) program, provides regular networking, needs assessments, and gatherings that help to foster sharing of best business practices and deepen relationships. Our gatherings and events are a forum for the exchange of ideas, information, and ongoing business leadership development. Facilitators of the Community of Practice are both NEIR program leaders – one a graduate and the other a mentor in the program –  who are seasoned facilitators and design engaging events and gatherings based on input from participants to best serve the Network.
