2026 Alaska Native Business Summit & Inaugural ANCSA Hall of Fame
December 18, 2026 | BP Energy Center | Anchorage, Alaska
Alaska Native Unity, in partnership with the Alaska Native Chamber, will convene the 2026 Alaska Native Business Summit on December 18, marking the 55th anniversary of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA).
ANCSA at 55 will bring together Alaska Native leaders, businesses, organizations, and community members to reflect on more than five decades of leadership and economic development, share lessons across generations, and look ahead to what comes next.
A centerpiece of the Summit will be the Inaugural ANCSA Hall of Fame, created to recognize and preserve the legacy of individuals whose vision, leadership, sacrifice, and service helped advance Alaska Native economic self-determination and shape Alaska's economy.
The Summit will include leadership conversations, the Hall of Fame induction ceremony, and opportunities for connection across generations.
Additional program details, speakers, inductees, agenda, and registration information will be announced soon.
A day to honor leadership and look to the future
