"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."

A Missoula nonprofit has received a $350,000 federal grant to develop a high-tech, mobile radio communication device with XM Satellite Radio and a small group of Montana companies.

The principals in the project are Inland Northwest Space Alliance http://www.inwspace.org/ and XM, which have teamed up to demonstrate the potential for XM radios to be used for mobile communication in remote areas. Inland will hold a first-responder field test near Philipsburg in September, said chief executive officer George Bailey.
