"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."

Five new companies are looking to move into the area, but Eastern Idaho economic planners are being tight-lipped about the details. “I don’t really want to say right now because things can always change,” said Bannock Development Corporation Executive Director Gynii Gilliam.
