Progress 2007 – "A look at Montana’s small-scale, high-tech boom"

"Western Montana’s small but powerful high-tech sector is rapidly gaining ground. Encouraged by the region’s relatively low costs, high quality of life and ready access to resources, high-tech businesses representing every field from biotechnology to telecommunications are either setting up shop or making plans to expand."

The Missoulian http://missoulian.com/front/ recently ran a series of stories on innovative Western Montana businesses. Business reporter Tyler Christensen was kind enough to send me the URLs for the Progress 2007 series as well as those specific stories that I thought were most interesting. I’ve added the URL’s for those companies highlighted in these stories.

I encourage you to explore this excellent series and contact Tyler or Lori Grannis if you feel you have an outstanding company or know of one in Western Montana. Their contact info is at the end of this post.
