Alaska Native regional, village, and urban corporations are major economic drivers across the state, nation, and in worldwide markets. In this issue we cover many of this sector's recent activities, how leadership is mentoring a new generation, and how these corporations share the wealth with their shareholders, descendents, regions, and villages. Also in this issue we take a moment to explore what's happening in western and northern parts of the state: the AU-Aleutians project, tourism opportunities, retail realities, and more. Enjoy!
