This presentation combines the perspectives and offers attendees a practical view of how executive leadership influences technology outcomes beyond technical implementation. Grounded in real-world lessons learned from technology transformations, system implementations, process improvements, and organizational change efforts. Rather than focusing on technology itself, speakers provide actionable guidance on the leadership behaviors, decisions, and accountabilities that most directly impact project success, adoption, and long-term value realization. Attendees will leave with practical tools they can immediately apply within their own organizations, regardless of technical background. Learn how to confidently ask the right questions, evaluate tech proposals, and champion major IT initiatives from the top down.

Every organization possesses critical data like customer records, employee and tribal enrollment files, and proprietary financial data—all of it must be protected at all costs. But do you know exactly where that data lives, where it travels, and who has access to it? This session demystifies Data Loss Prevention (DLP). Discover how to understand and map your organization’s "crown jewels," helping you build practical DLP policies that don't choke productivity, and leverage modern tools to stop data leaks before they happen.

Buying AI software is fundamentally different from purchasing traditional software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms. AI vendor contracts introduce entirely new legal and operational questions regarding data ownership, model training rights, algorithmic liability, and shifting cost structures. This session prepares procurement officers and leaders for AI negotiations. What to focus on, cut through the noise, paths to acquisition and alignment. Learn the critical clauses to look for in AI vendor agreements and how to ensure your organization retains complete ownership of its data.

Moderated by Adam Dunn

AI isn't dangerous because it's powerful; it's dangerous when it's powerful without boundaries. Understanding why AI governance must come before AI adoption is paramount in keeping data secure and being successful in your AI endeavors. Before any tribal government or enterprise deploys an AI tool, a clear governance framework must be established to protect tribal resources, sovereignty, and employee integrity. Jumping into AI without clear guardrails invites severe data and compliance risks. This session outlines the essential first steps for crafting an organizational AI policy. Learn how to define acceptable use cases, establish basic security baselines, and protect your tribal data from being ingested by public AI models. The success of your AI strategy won't be defined by what it can do, but by how well you control it. Responsible AI use requires essential security baselines that include data protection, access control, and oversight. In this session we will review the foundational security practices that must be in place to safely support AI initiatives.

Non-IT Leaders have a very large role in setting the foundation and strategy for AI in their tribe or tribal enterprise. Leaders must define the strategic vision, set the boundaries, and guide the organizational culture through this massive technological shift. This session explores how executives can successfully champion AI initiatives, manage change resistance, and ensure AI adoption directly supports the long-term vision of the tribe or tribal enterprise. Pairing two perspectives the topic demands: a tribal CEO who owns AI strategy, investment, and risk at the enterprise level, and the IT leader responsible for turning that direction into working systems. Together, the speakers show the conversations between a CEO and an IT leader that shaped their approach, where leadership must set direction, and where it must get out of the way. Hear about what worked, and what didn't

See how secure, connected data systems enhance care coordination, support informed decision-making, and help shape the future of behavioral health services. Go behind the scenes with the Choctaw Nation Tribal Research department to discover how they are transforming behavioral health grant evaluation through innovative, secure, and data-driven technology solutions. Through a real-world case study, this session will showcase the journey from spreadsheets to Power Apps and PowerBI dashboards, highlighting how streamlined data systems can reduce provider burden, strengthen care coordination, protect sensitive information, and support smarter decision-making for the future of tribal healthcare.

This session empowers Tribal IT and security leaders with actionable insights into two rapidly evolving threat landscapes: quantum computing and frontier AI. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of where quantum technology stands today, which Tribal systems are most vulnerable, and how to build a cryptographic inventory and phased PQC migration plan tailored to real Tribal budgets and staffing. The session also explores how adversaries are leveraging advanced AI—including deepfakes, voice clones, and AI-driven attacks—across Tribal government, health, education, and gaming environments. Practical defense strategies are covered, such as verification protocols, AI-assisted detection for lean teams, securing AI deployments, and governance guardrails to protect Tribal data sovereignty. Participants leave with a prioritized roadmap, key vendor questions, and guidance on what to tackle in the next 12 months versus the next five years.

This welcome video will help you make the most of your TribalNet experience by connecting with your peers, discovering new ideas, and learning from the people shaping what’s next for Indian Country. Because no tribe is smarter alone.

Active Directory remains a crown jewel for attackers looking to escalate privileges and move laterally across your network. This session gets into the weeds of AD hardening, focusing on misconfigurations that standard audits miss. This session breaks down ten overlooked Active Directory hardening measures that can significantly reduce ransomware risk, limit lateral movement, and prevent common privilege escalation techniques. Attendees will leave with a practical checklist for improving security without requiring a complete infrastructure redesign.

This session explores how PATH EHR will support integration of traditional Native American healing practices into modern healthcare delivery while honoring cultural values and patient-centered care. PATH EHR allows documenting culturally relevant health information and incorporating traditional healing practices into care plans and improves communication among healthcare providers to promote holistic care. This session will discuss considerations for data governance, privacy, cultural sensitivity and care coordination, using uniquely created and thoughtfully designed workflows, to support improved health outcomes for Native American communities.

The relationship between IT departments and regulatory bodies is often viewed as a balancing act between technological innovation and strict compliance. It doesn’t have to be a battle. This session discusses strategies for fostering a collaborative partnership between tech teams and gaming regulators and provides insight into the reasonings and motivations behind the actions of tribal gaming regulatory authorities. Recognize the root causes of friction between regulators and IT teams and translate regulatory requirements into clear, actionable language. Building an environment of trust that accelerates technology use while maintaining full compliance and a shared understanding of security and risk mitigation. Leave this session with more clarity on creating a partnership that supports innovation, security and regulatory confidence.

This session is designed to move beyond generational stereotypes and give leaders practical ways to build connection across age, experience, and technology preferences. Today’s workforce spans multiple generations, each with wildly different expectations, habits, and preferences when it comes to technology. Managing this environment requires a thoughtful leadership strategy. Hiring, retaining, mentoring, and engaging the new generation of workers is a skill. What does the younger worker expect and need? It can be just as difficult for a young worker to understand a much older worker as it is for the older employee to understand the younger one. New tools that automate and digitize proven personal assessments and leadership concepts might be the best way to bridge the gap. In this sessions, we discuss creating a practical leadership plan to bridge generational gaps at work by using scalable coaching habits and technology to support connection, engagement, knowledge transfer, and long-term performance.

DIGITAL REVOLUTIONARIES
The future doesn't wait for permission, and it won't wait for you either. The only question is whether you'll be the one writing the next chapter of your industry, or reading about the ones who did. Digital Revolutionaries isn't a talk about technology. It's a challenge to build the future.

Organizations that can't transform at the speed of change will face an uncertain future at best and certain failure at worst. Those that can harness AI and the wave of exponential technology arriving in its wake will find the greatest opportunity for growth and reinvention in a generation. Welcome to the world of Digital Revolutionaries. In this thought-provoking exploration of the technologies rebooting business right now, you'll see how the world's boldest businesses — disruptors and innovative incumbents alike — are putting tomorrow's biggest ideas to work today, from AI reshaping how we work and decide, to robots and physical AI moving off the factory floor and into every industry, to quantum computing quietly rewriting what's computationally possible. Understand the top trends shaping the future of business, society, and the world — from generative and agentic AI to the rise of physical AI and robotics to the coming quantum shift. See powerful examples of the ways exponential technology is changing what it means to be human, and consider why human transformation sits at the heart of customer and employee experience. See how companies in a wide range of industries are putting these technologies to work to transform how they operate, how they create and capture new value, and the relationships they have with their customers. Gain insight into how you can apply these lessons to transform your own business to thrive for the future.

Sponsors can begin booth setup before tradeshow officially opens!

Navigating HIPAA, data security, and the limits of autonomous AI. As artificial intelligence rapidly reshapes healthcare, organizations face a critical divide between enterprise-grade AI systems and standalone consumer AI tools. Differentiate between enterprise-grade AI solutions and standalone consumer AI tools, including where each may or may not be appropriate in healthcare settings. Participants will learn about the intersections between HIPAA and other healthcare regulations as they apply to AI use in tribal health systems and clinics. This session explores what is actually possible—and what is strictly off limits—shape the safe use of AI with protected health information when deploying AI in environments governed by HIPAA and other healthcare regulations.

Tribal organizations know their data needs protection, but many are stuck between knowing it matters and knowing how to take action to thoughtfully secure it. This session gives tribal technology leaders a structured, step-by-step process for classifying sovereign data, assessing where it is stored and who has access, and mapping the specific controls needed to protect it in cloud environments. Every attendee leaves with a practical framework, a protection controls matrix, and a 30-day action plan ready to execute.

Business Continuity - engaging the non-technical executives in the need to plan and test beyond the incident response and disaster recovery plans. When a cyber incident strikes, it isn't just an IT problem; it’s a business crisis. Yet, a massive gap often exists between technical recovery plans and executive decision-making. This session focuses on bridging that divide. What is most important? Who is most important? Who needs to be engaged and what should we be planning for? Join this session to discuss the importance of business continuity planning and testing.

Whether it's your first TribalNet or your 27th, join fellow sponsors, exhibitors, and vendors for this annual kickoff meeting. We'll share tips, reminders, and advice to help you maximize your time onsite and make the most of the week. We'll also wrap up with a brief look at what's new at TribalHub, upcoming opportunities, and a sneak peek at what's ahead.

The AI revolution isn't coming for your workforce—it's already here. And the organizations that will fall behind aren't the ones that failed to buy the right tools. They're the ones that bought the tools and left their people behind. To remain competitive, organizations must proactively prepare their teams for this shift. This session provides a practical roadmap for employee upskilling. Discover how to identify AI skill gaps across various departments, design effective internal training programs, and teach employees how to leverage AI tools safely and creatively to eliminate mundane tasks. Learn about practical roadmaps for building an AI-ready workforce, not by replacing people, but by giving them the skills and confidence to work alongside AI tools in ways that make their jobs easier, their decisions smarter, and their organizations more competitive. Identify where AI can genuinely help your people, how to design training that actually sticks, and how to establish guardrails that protect your data and sovereignty while still moving forward. The tribes that get this right won't just keep up. They'll set the standard. Attend this session to learn more!

In many organizations today—especially those managing complex communities like Tribal enterprises—technical experts and leadership teams often struggle to fully understand each other. IT leaders speak in systems. Executives think in strategy. Boards focus on impact and outcomes.
When these worlds are disconnected, critical ideas are lost in translation. In this dynamic and interactive keynote, communication specialist and author Jennifer Morgan shares practical strategies to help leaders bridge the gap between technical expertise, business priorities, and community leadership. Through powerful stories and immediately usable tools, participants will learn how to: translate technical complexity into clear, compelling messages, communicate with confidence to executives, boards, community leaders and communities & earn trust and alignment through storytelling. Drawing on Jennifer's vast experience and research in emotional contagion, leadership communication, and audience awareness, this session will help you elevate how you communicate so your ideas become action. Participants will leave with practical frameworks they can use immediately to communicate with greater clarity, confidence and impact.

Uncovering "Shadow IT" across the organization and tips and tricks to reign it in through better shared understanding, communication, and meeting the technology needs and timing that supports success for employees and operational departments. When employees feel stymied by slow IT processes, they take matters into their own hands—downloading unauthorized software and cloud apps to get their jobs done. This "Shadow IT" creates massive security and compliance risks, but it also highlights a genuine user need. Instead of fighting an endless war against unauthorized apps, this session teaches you how to harness that user drive. Learn how to discover hidden applications on your network, evaluate their utility, and safely bring them into the official organizational fold.

Securing ancillary services data without disruption. Ancillary services-lab, imaging, therapies and home care for example, are essential to patient care, but they also introduce complex challenges in data protection, privacy, and operational security. This session explores how healthcare organizations can safeguard sensitive patient data across these environments while minimizing disruption to clinical workflows. We will examine the unique risks associated with ancillary systems.

Do you know how secure (or unsecure) your vendors are? Your internal defense network might be a secure cyber fortress, but how secure are the vendors connected to it? Recent tribal cybersecurity surveys support that third-party software, cloud providers, and external contractors represent one of the fastest-growing attack vectors for tribes and tribal enterprises. Do you fully understand the third-party threat landscape? This session breaks down how to identify, assess, and mitigate vendor risk. Learn how to establish a practical vendor risk management process, enforce strict security requirements in service contracts, and ensure your partners aren't accidentally opening the back door to your data.

Move collaboratively from AI curiosity to AI action. AI adoption shouldn't be dictated solely by the IT department or restricted to executive or individual department silos. Because AI impacts every facet of operations, successful implementation requires an "entire organization" approach. This session covers how to design and run an effective AI Steering Committee. Attendees will learn how to structure an AI steering committee that includes representation from leadership, operations, IT, legal, and front-line staff, ensuring diverse perspectives guide adoption decisions across the organization. Leave with ideas to ensure AI initiatives directly align with the tribes strategic AI and technology goals and a playbook for prioritizing AI use cases through a steering committee lens, balancing quick wins against long-term strategic value while managing risk, budget, and change fatigue across the enterprise.

Every property desires a single integrated mobile app, but launching a successful one requires a strategy that goes far beyond a simple download link. Guests and players expect mobile apps to seamlessly handle booking, communications, mobile gaming, digital keys, cashless, and loyalty rewards all in one place. This session tackles the operational realities of mobile app management. Learn methods and strategies to avoid app fatigue and keep customers engaged long after they leave your property.

Technology is a key part of every single operation across your tribe or tribal enterprise. So, why is it so difficult to engage key executives, IT leaders, and the organization in building a technology strategy and innovation roadmap? When properly aligned with long-term strategy, IT becomes an incubator for new revenue streams and optimized services. This session explores how to build an innovation accelerator hub that the entire organization can get behind to shift your organization's mindset from reactive IT maintenance to proactive technology strategy. Move from putting out fires to strategic initiatives. Learn how to foster a culture of innovation and use emerging tech to gain a true competitive advantage.

Information sharing is one of the most effective—and underutilized—tools in cybersecurity. Through an interactive demonstration and practical examples, this session explores how individuals and organizations can become information sharing champions and strengthen resilience by sharing timely, actionable information. Attendees will explore proven best practices for information sharing within their organizations and across trusted partner networks while examining the role of ISACs, collective defense, and public-private partnerships in strengthening cybersecurity. Participants will leave with practical, actionable steps they can implement immediately to improve information sharing and strengthen their organization's security and resilience.

Microsoft is delivering a two-part training and build program with a single objective: make Copilot normal across the tribal enterprise. Not a pilot in one department. Not a proof of concept on a shelf. Normal—the way email and Teams are normal. Present in every workflow, governed by tribal leadership, and built by the people who actually run the operations. The program pairs a six-session virtual prep series with a four-hour, hands-on workshop at TribalNet. It moves participants from foundational fluency to building real agents grounded in their own data, their own governance, and their own operational needs — then puts those agents on a path to production within 30 days. This is not a demo. Every session produces a working deliverable. Participants will work together in small groups and an assigned Microsoft expert. Groups will each work on an agent that solves a common manual process within their tribal department or agency and at the end of the 4 hours, everyone will leave with access to all of the agents that were created. Along with the confidence and knowledge to create additional agents within their own tribal entity.

Seats are limited- separate sign up is required for anyone wanting to attend: https://form.jotform.com/262093303605046
