Does Idaho’s business brand matter?

tags: brand, ibr, idaho, ncb, techboise

  • Mike Tomlin has an interesting post over on Idaho Business Review about if a state’s brand matters to business or not.  I would say it absolutley does.  For a state like Idaho we either have to compete on incentives or brand.  In the long run it’s better for the state to attract residents and businesses based on our brand.  The problem is that our state is run by people who care more about their personal brand and what their buddies think of them than what our brand means outside the state.

Hi Tac,
read in IQ about your Menlparc project. Sounds interesting. Any more news on that? When can we move in? ;)

Oliver, I think you’re actually referring to the WaterCooler project that I was helping on. That is set to go live and will happily put you in touch with the developer on that.
