Your official welcome to TribalHub's Regional Forum- a quick preview of what to plan for and how to make the most of your time here!

Always one of the most popular, interactive and meaningful sessions in our annual regional events, this is your opportunity to connect or reconnect with your peers at tribes from your region. In this roundtable style session, everyone will be given the opportunity to introduce themselves and to share information, questions, successes or challenges with the entire group in an engaging session that will be limited to only employees from tribes. One lucky attendee will walk away from this session with a visa gift card! Facilitated by TribalHub and Regional Ambassadors.

New in 2025 tribes will be able to view findings from TribalHub that will be gathered from tribes nationwide throughout the year focused on two new areas of insight. IT dept wages and well as AI data including readiness, usage and products. Learn more about what you can expect and when for this great info and how you can be a part.

Stop and quickly say "Hi" to each of the event sponsors at their table (check your badge and drop your drawing tickets) for more chances to win some cash!!

Plans are critical but without practice, how do you really know where you might fall short when a cyber attack happens? In this session we will interactively work through a serious cyber incident scenario that could affect any tribe, and discuss how prepared each attendee organization is to deal with the "real thing". Confusion and slow decision making can lead to operational losses or even worse. Are your executive, legal, marketing, communications, technical and operations teams all really prepared? The ability to respond quickly and effectively is critical to maintaining operations with limited interruptions. Don't lead your organization with a false sense of preparedness.

Executive leadership at the host site will kick this session off with some highlights and discussion of recent projects and what's on the horizon and top of mind for this regional casino and tribe. Learning from your peers is one of the best parts of this event! Plus have the chance to see some of the highlights of the host property up close. You won't want to miss this!

Recharge for the afternoon on behalf of our sponsors!

Use the power of persuasive storytelling to build consensus and avoid frustration. Have you ever seen eyes glazing over when you share relevant data to executives and leadership? This session will help you get started or improve on transforming raw data into true insights. Leave with tips, tools and templates.

It's time to make new friendships or strengthen existing ones as we kick back in a fun casual setting in this event leading into dinner!

Enjoy wrapping up the day with a great dinner and conversation on behalf of our title sponsor.

Fuel up for another great morning!

Does your tribe or enterprise have the building blocks in place to be prepared for what's in the NOW and what's ahead with AI? Have you identified who should be engaged with the development and ongoing changes for your AI roadmap? Do you have policies in place surrounding AI? Attend this session and either leave with ideas of how to improve your policies and roadmap or discover how you can get started!

By working together your region can achieve more! Don't wait a whole year to meet again. This is a great time to discuss key challenges and opportunities for you and other tribes in this region.

Don't leave early- this session alone is worth sticking around for! A reveal and discussion related to the data collected on Day 1 surrounding AI preparedness. Plus this eye-opening session will share some technology system and structure info specific to both your region AND in comparison to tribes across the U.S. One lucky attendee will be leaving this session with a $200 visa gift card as well - must be present to win!
