Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

Sioux City has a history as a tech leader, and history is about to repeat itself.

For those that don’t know, Sioux City was once a hub of cutting-edge technology employing thousands of tech workers.

In the late 1980s, Ted Waitt launched Gateway 2000 from his father’s Sioux City cattle farm. The Fortune 500 eventually moved to North Sioux City, S.D., where – at its height – employed 5,700 tech workers. Gateway has since been absorbed by Taiwan-based Acer Inc., but it’s past still influences the city’s burgeoning tech scene.
