GEObet founder Gerry Gionet (pictured) said: “This is about economic development for the Shoshoni people and advancement of their e-commerce infrastructure.

"GEObet’s goal of bringing together all North American tribes to collectively grow through the power of tribal e-conomy starts with GEObet online and moves to green initiatives, giving back to the environment as a basic fundamental of doing business.”  

Chief William Bill of Winnemucca Indian Colony said: “The Shoshoni are of the land and in 2013 we are leading the tribal movement into developing green initiatives for food, energy - and doing so by inventing new processes and finding ways of improving on old technologies.

“Nevada is built on the land the Shoshoni Tribes have inhabited for centuries and it is appropriate for the Shoshoni to embrace their inherent right to gaming and work together with other tribal nations to benefit all nations fully from those rights.

“Gerry Gionet and GEObet Network are tribal in blood, in nature and in economy,” said Bill, “and we see the vast opportunities before us through a cohesive effort to expand mutual business interests.”
