Governor Bullock Leads Economic Development Roundtable in Kalispell

Main Street Montana Project will issue statewide business plan in 2014

Gov. Steve Bullock visited Kalispell on June 8 to lead a roundtable discussion about economic development in Montana. The Main Street Montana Project Main Street Montana Project was launched in May to create a "bottom-up business plan that is useful and nonpartisan," according to co-chair Larry Simkins, president and CEO of the Washington Companies.

The meeting at Flathead Valley Community College was the sixth roundtable discussion across the state since May. About 120 local business leaders and citizens attended the local session.

"Montana businesses know better than anyone what it takes to succeed," Bullock said in his opening remarks. "If you’re a business that is looking to expand, you create a business plan, but as a state we’ve never done that."
