This project is co-chaired by Larry Simkins, President and CEO of the Washington Companies, and Bill Johnstone, President and CEO of D.A. Davidson & Co. These forward-thinking business leaders are supported by Montana Chief Business Officer John Rogers, Commissioner of Labor Pam Bucy and Director of Commerce Meg O'Leary.
