Las Vegas, NV – May 25, 2022: Honoree Reception at Cromwell Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada


On May 25, 2022, Kirby Hays, President/CEO of Hal Hays Construction Inc (HHCI), was honored with the prestigious award from the National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development (NCAIED), which recognizes 40 emerging American Indians from across Indian Country who have demonstrated leadership, initiative, and dedication and made significant contributions in business and/or in their community. NCAIED has over 50 years’ experience of assisting American Indian Tribes and tribal people with business and economic development. They have evolved into the largest national Indian specific business organization in the nation.

Their motto is “We Mean Business” and that is evident in their daily work to better the lives of American Indian people – both now and for generations to come.

“I am honored to receive this prestigious recognition. As proud as I am of my career-related accomplishments, they pale in comparison to what we have been able to achieve in the Native American community. I look forward to continued engagement as a resource in the Native American community to help provide opportunities for others.”
