GSI partners closely with its members on a variety of business related issues and provides businesses with opportunities to succeed and grow.  Here is what our members are saying. 

Thank you members for your support!

"My firm has been the beneficiary of the wide array of services offered by the Eastern Washington PTAC (government contracting opportunities) through Louise Fendrich.  I have personally participated in the classes she offers.  Louise inspires those who become a part of PTAC and creates extraordinary opportunities. 

We recently met with the prime contractor on the Hanford cleanup and were able to gain an in-depth understanding of the types of goods and services that are being purchased.  Such an opportunity would be nearly impossible for a small business to obtain on their own."
- Chuck Teegarden, Lukins & Annis, P.S.

“It's not a coincidence that our business really took off shortly after joining Greater Spokane Incorporated. The GSI team has done a remarkable job of inspiring members to support one another with their time and dollars. 

"GSI has built a culture of members who not only want to see their own businesses grow, but are genuinely jazzed when yours does, too.

"Right from the beginning, GSI started connecting us with local businesses they felt we needed to know after we relocated to the Inland Northwest."
-Shane Young, Shane Young Photography

“The leadership of GSI has provided essential work towards a healthy future for Empire Health Services.  I want to personally thank each of you for your important perspective and support.  As you have affirmed, the incredible work of the men and women of Deaconess and Valley Hospitals and their affiliate partners is vital to our community and this region.  They deserve the very best opportunity to continue and to thrive.  

"I will tell my friends and family that you stepped up when it mattered. You are all deeply appreciated.  Your support is truly welcome and critically important.”
-Mike Taylor, President, Taylor Engineering

"Thank you very much for this amazing opportunity to participate in the Teaching the Teachers workshop. It was the best six hours I've spent learning about what is available in Spokane. I am definitely recommending that everyone I know come and take advantage of these amazing trainings. Let me know when the next one is!"
-Sara Reijonen, Teacher at Havermale High School

“Your visit yesterday to Olympia by the leadership of Greater Spokane Inc is another fine example of your service to our community.  Your meetings with our Governor, Senate and House leadership supporting the Empire Health System sale to Community Health Systems was of high impact.    

"Your support is essential to our success and appreciated by all of us at Empire Health.  Greater Spokane Incorporated has given us a tremendous boost to health care delivery for this region." 
-Ron McKay, Chairman of the Board, Empire Health Services
