Here is our Top 15 for this week celebrating work and successes to grow and strengthen the Great Falls regional economy — Montana’s Golden Triangle. And, sharing business resources and skill-building opportunities to empower your success.
1) With our partners from the Montana Department of Commerce and the Great Falls Area Chamber of Commerce, GFDA hosted a visit from an exciting Aerospace company looking for big skies of opportunity. This company has unique needs, which may be best served by partnerships in multiple Montana cities. We have incredible resources at the state level and a strong sense of team with other economic developers throughout the state, which can help us make Great Falls the best place to land for large innovative companies. Do you know of a company looking to expand or locate in the West? Reach out to Jolene at [email protected]
3) Our Downtown Business Development Officer completed his 1,500 mile journey through Idaho and Montana, visiting six communities, networking with over 20 people, and meeting with seven developer and restaurant groups while leaving plenty of shoe leather along the way. He was able to attend the grand opening of the Warehouse Food Hall in downtown Boise and spent some one-on-one time with the CEO of Hendricks Commercial Properties who is the developer on the project. He toured all six community downtowns and received inspiration and new targets along the way to bring back to Downtown Great Falls. We’ve already started receiving emails from developers that heard we were in their town. If you have a great company you think would make a great fit in Downtown Great Falls, contact Christian at 406.836.0136 or [email protected].
