"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."

Professor Traci O’Neill had a brainstorm over Christmas break to match local businesses with student interns as a way to strengthen the Butte business community.

The upshot? The connections give businesses a boost in marketing while students garner valuable on-the-job experience. The Tech-to-business project is an offshoot of the Montana Business Expansion and Retention, or BEAR, program. http://businessresources.mt.gov/BEAR/default.mcpx

The networking may help keep young professionals in Butte and help expand the economy.
