Native FORGE is an expansion of Arizona FORGE and will provide free business mentorship to members of native Arizona tribes.
TUCSON, Ariz. — A University of Arizona program has expanded to help members of native Arizona tribes grow their businesses.
"Given the different experiences entrepreneurs are having, whether they are a startup or are already established, they will be going through different training. Some of that will be along the lines of finance and accounting. Some of that may be marketing. Some of it may be investments and what that process looks like," said Native FORGE Mentor in Residence, Rafael Tapia.
"On the San Carlos Apache Tribe we have several small businesses that are willing to grow and develop there. This will help them grow more and understand the development of their business," said San Carlos Apache Tribe member and marketplace manager, Alice Juan.
