At WEDG, we believe that strong economies are built through collaboration. As a wholly owned tribal corporation, our mission is to create sustainable economic opportunities that benefit both the Wakpamni Lake Community and the businesses we work with. Due to the remote location and economic challenges faced by our community, traditional business models are often not viable. To overcome these barriers, we actively seek strategic partnerships with companies that align with our long-term vision for growth, innovation, and financial self-sufficiency. By working together, we not only generate revenue to support essential community initiatives but also create new industries, workforce opportunities, and economic resilience that benefit everyone involved.

Partnering with WEDG provides companies with access to a powerful suite of economic advantages designed to lower costs, increase profitability, and streamline business operations. Our partnerships unlock exclusive tribal benefits, including exemptions from sales, property, and state income taxes, as well as government contracting preferences that open doors to lucrative federal projects. Businesses working with us also gain access to subsidized federal financing, specialized tax credits, and a regulatory environment that fosters flexibility and innovation. Beyond financial incentives, companies partnering with WEDG can strengthen their brand’s corporate social responsibility by supporting economic development in historically underserved communities, creating a lasting impact while achieving sustainable business growth.
