Gathering 2025
On October 9, 2025, we gathered at The Castaway in Portland for an evening that went far beyond celebration—it marked a movement toward economic justice and transformational prosperity. Nearly 400 Native entrepreneurs and leaders came together. Through food, fashion, and music, we honored Indigenous excellence and celebrated the strength of the Native business and cultural community across the Pacific Northwest. That night, we witnessed something powerful: our community embracing the truth at the heart of this year’s theme—Movement to Power. Our Culture. Our Prosperity. Our Future.
