Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

Each year, Utah’s three major research universities inject millions of dollars into the local economy via research spending, using grants and contracts from government agencies and private organizations. Much of the money received for sponsored research stays in Utah, creating jobs and rippling through the economy.

"Our research universities are powerful economic engines and the money they receive from grants and contracts for research can have a significant impact on Utah’s economy," says EDCUtah President & CEO Jeff Edwards.
