Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday | September 15-17, 2026 | Tulsa, Oklahoma

In the United States, 575 recognized Tribal Nations each have their own unique leadership structures, communities, and authority over Tribal lands. As the U.S. energy landscape continues to evolve, many Tribal Nations are leading energy initiatives that support their communities while strengthening sovereignty and self-determination.

The ROSA ENERGY CONFERENCE: Energy Conversations, Done Differently offers a unique opportunity to explore strengthening business relationships and partnerships through collaboration and understanding for energy sustainability and security.

Designed to bring together Tribal Nations, industry, government, academia, and students, not to debate energy sources or advocate for a particular technology, but to create a space where people can better understand one another’s perspectives and begin building the relationships needed to navigate the future of energy together.

The objective of this year’s conference is to help people enter energy conversations differently. This conversation matters because many are entering the room without a shared understanding of how energy systems actually work, how different sectors make decisions, and what respectful engagement looks like.

  • Learn how to build trust before you need it – not after things go wrong
  • Avoid costly misunderstandings that stall projects
  • Build the context needed to work respectfully and effectively between Tribal, Industry, Government, & Academic settings
