Bitterroot College Program holds special business forum on Oct. 6

Residents of the Bitterroot Valley and beyond are invited to bounce business ideas off some of the industry’s best minds during a seminar in Hamilton next month.

"The Sunflower MATRIX: Introducing a New Model for Business Success" will feature an afternoon and early evening of business strategy discussions, question-and-answer sessions and mentoring led by three expert panelists. Sponsored by the Bitterroot College Program of the University of Montana, the event will run from 1 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 6, at the Hamilton Performing Arts Center.

Victoria Clark, director of the Bitterroot College Program, said the seminar is for people who have a business idea, want to know how to launch a business or are wondering how to improve on a business that already exists.

Panelists are Rob Ryan, founding CEO of Ascend Communications, a company that grew to 5,000 employees and was sold to AT&T for a record amount; Joe Graziano, former chief financial officer of Apple Inc. and a retired Silicon Valley financial executive; and Dan Floyd, a business development and implementation strategist and founder/co-founder of VSLI Technology, CASI and Coastal Inns of Distinction.

All seminar proceeds benefit the Bitterroot College Program.
