"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."

The Idaho Department of Commerce and Labor says the Silicon Valley-based technology firm Ugobe http://www.ugobe.com/ is moving its headquarters to Eagle, Idaho http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle,_Idaho .

The department made the announcement Saturday. Ugobe, is the company that created the lifelike toy, Pleo the dinosaur, and it’s not a stranger to Idaho. The company is based in Emeryville, Calif. but its research and development lab with 10 employees is already in Eagle. The company’s co-founder, inventor Caleb Chung, is also from Idaho.
