"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

Entrepreneurs who set up shop in Boise, Idaho, say it’s not just a city… it’s a sweet spot. With a population of about 210,000, the state’s capital has the best traits of a large city — major university, quality healthcare, sizeable airport and a fair bit of culture — and all the perks of life in a mountain town.

"There’s easy access to skiing, mountain biking, hiking, you name it, but then I can get on a plane and go virtually anywhere in two hops," says Marshall Simmonds, founder and CEO of Define Media Group, a firm that specializes in search engine optimization and audience development and counts Condé Nast, Gannett and The New York Times among its clients.
