The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

Bringing the state’s brain trust home to work emerged as a campaign slogan during the recent race for governor. One growing Montana tech firm has turned that slogan into reality.

Looking to expand its growing youth initiative, the Big Sky Code Academy http://www.bigskycodeacademy.org/ has coaxed Billings native Megan Jung back to the state from Portland to launch its new Montana Code Kids initiative.

Jung, a Montana native, arrived back in the state over the weekend. Once unpacked, she’ll set out to expand the state’s tech base by teaching coding skills at a young age.
