Anatomy of a Business Deal
for Tribal Organizations and Enterprises

Finance


Tribes and tribal enterprises are increasingly “getting game” in structuring business deals and relationships with investors or partners. Because there are multiple players on both the tribal and partner sides, tribes need to get into the head of each player and anticipate their deal-making perspective. Tribes must also be aware of the minefields that they may encounter as you
move toward closure.
