Anyone who has started a business in Montana knows there are lots of steps –some mundane, some complicated – just to get through the bureaucratic system.
Now, in an effort to streamline that process and encourage entrepreneurship, the state has created the Montana Business Navigator, a new online tool that guides prospective business owners through the hoops of identifying the necessary registrations, licenses and permits needed to begin.
On Tuesday, Gov. Steve Bullock formally introduced the website to the Missoula business community during a news conference at Rivertop Renewables, a chemical company located in the Montana Technology Enterprise Center on East Broadway.
