"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."

In a victory for solar-power developers, the Montana Supreme Court Monday said state regulators acted illegally in 2017 when they drastically cut prices that utilities pay to solar-power plants in Montana.
