The Northwest BEAR Group — Working Together to Connect, Develop and Grow Our Communities
Northwest Montana has many valued business owners and entrepreneurs, but we know that starting and growing a business is sometimes a steep, uphill climb, and we don't believe that anyone should have to go it alone. That's why the Northwest BEAR group was formed. The Northwest Business Expansion and Retention (BEAR) Team is a collaborative group of professionals pooling a wide variety of skills and expertise in an effort to help new, expanding and relocating businesses connect the dots and fill the gaps. By providing classes, events, mentors and one-on-one assistance, BEAR strives to help startups and established businesses leverage the resources, connections and knowledge needed to take your business to the next level. The BEAR Team members provide free and low cost services to help you build your business or actualize the business you want. Let Northwest BEAR help you connect, develop and grow.
