The 3rd Annual Big Sky, Bright Future Economic Summit will take a closer look at what’s driving the growth of Montana's high-tech industry and discuss what comes next.
According to a recent report by the Montana High Tech Business Alliance, Montana’s high-tech industry generated $7.9 billion in revenue in 2024 and added $4.4 billion in value to the state’s economy. From 2014 to 2024, the industry grew twice as fast as Montana’s overall economy, increasing its share of the state’s GDP from 3.6% to 5%.
At this year’s Summit, industry leaders and experts will explore the technologies and industries shaping Montana’s economic future, including artificial intelligence, photonics & quantum, data centers, national defense, online safety, and more.
