Central Valley Native Economic Summit

American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawai’ian (including Pacific Islander American) communities have been a key focus area of MBDA’s overall support for minority business development since the Agency’s inception. Our Fresno MBDA Native Business Initiative for Transformation address the core needs of AI/AN/NH business communities in Access to Capital, Business Coaching, and Business Incubators and Accelerators, areas of clear strength where ASIAN, Inc. has demonstrated a successful track record in diverse geographical areas and among the diverse Native populations that have become more integral to our economic prosperity. ASIAN, Inc. will continue its work to address these needs by furthering and deepening the close relationships it has created and fostered with the Native communities of the Central Valley and beyond. In addition, ASIAN, Inc. will leverage 21st–century business tools to lead the way in the movement to integrate digital tools and libraries and services in a compelling, virtual business network that makes isolated minority communities more visible to lenders, public and private supplier diversity officers and the entrepreneurial world at large.
