This project is directed at researching barriers to entrepreneurship which are preventing the development of successful business on Native American reservation communities. The vast majority of research pertaining to Native entrepreneurship focuses on the lack of success while there is little research in academia detailing the barriers and obstacles facing tribes. The four key objectives of this project were to specify Native business barriers, define success for Native businesses, address the current state of entrepreneurial development on reservations, and finally to analyze recommendations for improvement. For this project data was obtained through interviews with prominent leaders and entrepreneurs in the Native communities of northeast Wisconsin. Findings were compared to tribes nationally through the use of literary research.

This paper explores how culture affects economic development on Native American reservations by examining how culture directs the attention of entrepreneurs and interacts with formal governance institutions. This paper combines theoretical insights from economic sociology, market process economics, and institutional economics as a basis to evaluate entrepreneurship and economic development on Native American reservations. Culture, as a web of social meanings, shapes what opportunities entrepreneurs are alert to, influences how they perceive transaction costs, and determines whether institutions achieve their intended ends. Historical and contemporary case studies are used to build analytical narratives to corroborate the theoretical approach. The federal government has imposed many formal institutions on reservations, which have disrupted traditional governance and property rights structures. If formal institutions do not comport with the underlying culture, those institutions do not facilitate positive entrepreneurship and economic growth. Despite the barriers, entrepreneurs across several reservations have leveraged their cultural and social ties to create robust informal economies. In some cases, imposed institutions have fostered rent-seeking and have given rise to a culture of rent-seeking.

Previous economic scholarship has demonstrated an institutional basis for Native American poverty. Poverty is blamed largely on formal governance structures, especially inefficient property-rights regimes and excessive bureaucratic governance. Although previous scholarship has emphasized the role of formal institutions, market-process theory as it relates to Native American economies has been neglected in this literature. This paper attempts to fill the gap by bringing market-process theory and entrepreneurship into the broader discussion of the institutional effects on Native American economic development. Economic growth and development are the direct results of the competitive entrepreneurial market process, and the quality of institutions that govern social action is the ultimate determinant of individuals' willingness to engage in entrepreneurial activity. Institutions impede entrepreneurship, the market process, and economic development on Native American reservations through three overarching channels: (1) the federal land trust, (2) a dual federal-tribal bureaucracy, and (3) legal and political uncertainty. Those channels generally raise barriers to mutually beneficial exchange, entrepreneurship, and innovation. In particular, they generally increase transaction costs, rent seeking, and bureaucratic delay, which impede many Native Americans from engaging in private enterprise.

The primary scope of this research is to identify the business and entrepreneurial activity taking place in the Native American community and includes a literary review of ten articles found to be of significant importance in gathering a broader scope of how tribal entrepreneurship is succeeding and evaluating recommendations for improvement. Early on, tribal people shared a similar economy that greatly differed from the market economy of today where entrepreneurship problems loom large in Indian Country. Through this review we will gain a better understanding of where business and entrepreneurship activity stands in Native America. Tribal colleges serve not only as places of education but also offer business assistance and are community hubs, often independent of tribal government. These colleges are vital to economic improvement of tribes and suffer from low retention rates and staff turnover due to inadequate funding. The tribes of the United States are not alone as other tribal people from Canada and New Zealand share many of the same problems of their US counterparts. In particular, Canadian reporting processes are inefficient and create difficulties in getting needed funds where they belong. Individual entrepreneurs also face stiff competition and often are not afforded the needed loans and capital to begin on-reservation business. Individual businesses increase tribal economic development, employ tribal members, and keep valuable tribal dollars on the reservation. Tribal nations have shown the most progress in productive economies by reinvesting dollars back into profitable industries like the cement plant of the Passamaquoddy tribe or the Flexcrete Company of the Navajo nation. Much of this tribal success is attributed to the introduction of gaming and the revenues now provided to tribes. Although gaming has been a profitable solution, it is only a temporary fix as tribes continue to make strides toward independent economic development. Tribes have shown that incorporating culture into the strategic planning process can also be successful if implemented properly. Tribal government remains the largest hindrance to economic growth for Native tribes. Most government agencies still prioritize employment and education as keys to success and are only now beginning to provide more support of economic development endeavors such as loans, regulation, and stability, all of which business owners need for on-reservation start-ups. Research suggests tribes focus on institutional change and transformation while also maintaining a positive relationship with tribal entrepreneurs who share in the economic incentive to provide a growing tribal economy. It is evident that tribes are showing major transformation from transfer-based economies to productive economies. A secondary transformation is also occurring where reservation communities are becoming their own private sectors which are bringing highly skilled tribal members back to their communities and driving economic growth from within. Despite these best efforts, tribes still are facing tough issues today. Tribal colleges are helping to overcome the issues of education and experience. Governments are beginning to provide support for individual entrepreneurs. Natural resources and Indian lands are being utilized to overcome the location and distance from market deficiencies. However, much is yet to be done if Native Americans are to truly establish entrepreneurial success on the reservation.
