State of Idaho - Project 60

Project 60 is a comprehensive initiative to grow Idaho’s Gross Domestic Product from $51 billion to $60 billion over the next six years. Designed in three tiers to strengthen both rural and urban communities, the plan will create quality jobs for all Idahoans by fostering systemic growth, recruiting new companies to Idaho, and selling Idaho’s trade and investment opportunities to the world. 
·         The first priority involves making Idaho’s business climate more attractive by cultivating a highly skilled workforce, establishing a method to get the incredible research being done at our research institutions to the consumer market, and improving our transportation and information infrastructure. 
·         Accomplishing these goals will make domestic and international recruitment of investment easier. 
·         Domestically, we will build on our recent recruitment successes (Areva), specifically targeting firms that will work well with our traditional industries. 
·         In addition, our efforts will reach internationally, not only selling Idaho’s products to the world, but also selling Idaho itself as a great place for foreign sources of capital to invest their dollars. 
·         Working together, these three tiers will ensure that Idaho overcomes the current economic crisis and will increase the quality of life for all those who call this great state home.
