Welcome to MEDA: Leadership Dedicated to Building Montana's Economy

It has been almost one year since Butte-Silver Bow county commissioners voted to publicly fund a supercomputer to be kept in the Mining City.

Those commissioners voted to grant $380,000 in loans from public funds to this project in hope that it will attract business and put Butte at an advantage in the technologies sector. The result has been positive.

Over $10 million is at work at the Rocky Mountain Super Computing http://www.rmscinc.org/ high tech hub at the Thornton Building where one special piece of hardware was recently added.
