NATIVE FINANCE SUMMIT

We want our summit to make a difference for our attendees – no matter where they are in their business life or where their professional journey has led them. And in that spirit, we have registration tiers with different registration rates, aimed at accommodating an array of attendee types. Be sure to register for our summit in your appropriate registration tier. Our event team will be vetting all attendees in order to make sure they have made the appropriate and correct tier selection.

The Native Finance Summit offers four distinct registration tiers designed to serve our diverse audience and support meaningful participation from across Indian Country and allied sectors:

• NAFSA Member Tribe / Enterprise

• Non-Member Tribe / Enterprise

• Corporate / Fintech Attendee

• Government / Nonprofit / Academic

Each tier is available at four progressive price points depending on the time of registration:

• Early Bird – Best value for those who register early!

• Advance – Discounted rates available before the Standard deadline.

• Standard – Regular pricing for timely registrants.

• On-Site / Late – Last-minute or on-site registration at full rate.

Please note: There are no trade show-only passes or single-day registrations. All registrations include full access to the Native Finance Summit programming, networking events, trade show and hosted meals.

We encourage early registration to lock in the best rate and secure your spot at this important gathering of tribal finance leaders, enterprises, and innovation partners.

We highly recommend you register sooner than later. Our "Early Bird" and “Advance” rates are your best opportunity to save on event registration. All information is contained above on this page in the "REGISTRATION TIERS & RATES" section. When our "Early Bird" and “Advance” registration rates expire, "Standard" priced registration rates begin. All on site registrations will be charged "Late" registration rates. So don’t put off registering! Take advantage of our "Early Bird" and "Advance" registration rates before they expire and register today!
