Podcast – Montana’s Goodworks Ventures, ‘Impact Investing’ And Rural Development

Goodworks - Mary-Stranahan-Dawn-McGee

“My desire is to have broad-based community ownership of Montana businesses; because it makes sense. These businesses are profitable, they can pay a dividend. And so that’s really where our arrow is pointed, but there’s a lot of interim steps between starting and getting to that destination,” says Mary Stranahan, founder of Goodworks Ventures.

Founded in 2007, Goodworks Ventures, a Missoula, Montana impact fund, currently has a portfolio of 35 companies in science, food, sustainability and technology. The company is the dream of Stranahan, a longtime Montana philanthropist and retired physician. Goodworks Ventures invests in early-stage  Montana businesses that they believe contribute to the greater good and enact positive change.
