St Germaine Data Innovations LLC, or SGDI, specializes in strategic data innovations to inform Tribal Leaders so that they can be forward-thinking to serve their people and invest for seven generations and beyond.  

Seizing opportunities and dealing with challenges equates to protecting your tribal data sovereignty. SGDI is uniquely qualified to help you capitalize on your challenges and opportunities and turn them into data success stories.

Tribal Sovereignty is defined as: 

  • The ability to care for your people - in your own way, and in a way that is modern, yet honors the timelessness of our cultures

  • Health, energy, economic, housing, food, language and cultural sustainability, self-reliance, and resilience

  • Promoting and preserving our Native ways of life so that younger generations can also pass them on

Data Sovereignty is defined as: 

  • The idea that data are subject to laws of the nation where they are collected

  • Governance structures set in place to collect, generate, and store data are allowed access

  • The United States does not have any laws on data sovereignty, but regulates data privacy, this allows access across borders

Tribal Data Sovereignty is defined as: 

  • Tribal data sovereignty is the right of a nation to govern the collection, ownership, and application of its own data. Only a tribe has the sovereign authority to determine how their data may or may not be used.

  • When tribal data is used under differing parties, it should meaningfully partner and consult with Tribal leaders on the analysis and interpretation of the data.

  • Tribes retain an ownership interest in data, even when the Tribe’s data are located in a state, federal or other party’s dataset.

  • Tribes must have equitable access to data needed to perform their governmental duties.

What we do is respectfully gain an understanding of your Tribe’s structure, needs, and opportunities. Then, give you the data strategy to build data structures and data-based decision-making models and train teams within your organization to effectively use those models and beyond to increase your business and government success. 

We do this with love, compassion, confidentiality and discretion. We care about your people, their well-being, and your Tribe’s success, prosperity, and permanence.
