To The Boardroom
As economic developers, we know that there are great things happening in South Dakota all the time. However, sometimes, we aren’t the best at passing the good news along. To help us all do a better job at tooting our own horns, the GOED is maintaining a clearinghouse of these tidbits for our partners to share with their boards and communities.
