Collaboration.

MEDA (Montana Economic Developers Association) is comprised of more than 150 economic development practitioners from across the state working to advance development through business creation, expansion, and retention, as well as diversification of our state’s economic base.

The Treasure State. The Last Best Place. Big Sky Country. Whatever you call it now, we invite you to call it home. Our economy is a hub for agriculture, arts, exports, entrepreneurism, startups, tourism, and so much more. Whatever you want to be, you can do it in Montana.
