GSI is about partnerships – people working together, making a difference in their business & in the community.
You can participate in some committees just by “raising your hand” and we’ll get you on board right away. Other committees include an application process. You are invited to participate where you have the greatest interest. You’ll build relationships, learn about the community, and help move Spokane and the Inland Northwest ahead.
All meetings are held at Greater Spokane Incorporated unless otherwise noted. For more information, please call the staff liaison listed or our office at 624-1393.
