The GOED’s Community Co-op Trade Show program gives South Dakota communities the ability to partner with the GOED on the industries that the State of South Dakota is targeting. The Co-op efforts can diversify community’s economic efforts by actively marketing and selling to specific industries. The Co-op targets the largest Trade Show within an industry by creating a destination within the show and driving participation through GOED and Community marketing efforts.
The cost to the community to participate in a Co-op Trade Show is $1,000, plus travel expenses. Included in the $1,000 is:
