challenge, while 31.8% cited “funding” and 27.3% cited “business development.” Only
20.5% of respondents see “recruiting talent” as their greatest need.

Annual meeting 2015,widescreen final v 2

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. We are honored and excited that the EDC has chosen us to share our story here today
  2. My story begins on a farm outside of Edmore, ND Grew up the son of a steel erector who used to drive me around and say “Hey, look, I built this!” Decided that I wanted to go into Construction Management
  3. Graduated from NDSU with a Construction Management degree Dad called and asked Mid America if they were hiring and I worked there for 11 years Went to work for my dad’s company Dakota Erectors in April of 2004
  4. First job completed with Dakota Erectors was the Cargill Deodorizer building which took 6 months to build I realized this job was taking me to the Western part of the state and I didn’t want to travel
  5. I’ve always loved Fargo because it is a growing community and has a lot of opportunity I wanted to contribute to the community that I live in Who wouldn’t want to live here? In order to stay near Fargo, I decided to start bidding out fabrication of steel while still working for my dad
  6. Just like every entrepreneur, I started in the basement of my house in Reile’s Acres with a computer, desk & printer Ethanol boom was beginning and we were awarded our first ethanol project
  7. Husker Ag in Phillipsburg, KS $1.3 million project that got the steel fabrication going and needed more space
  8. Rented a small space in Fargo where I could control our product and the fabrication Hired 1 employee There was no bathroom Due to the number of ethanol projects being awarded, I knew I needed a bigger shop after 6 months
  9. I purchased a 14,000 square foot building in Fargo, formed Integrity Steel Supply, LLC and hired 3 employees We take raw steel and fabricate it to the customer’s request – we make things such as stairs, rails, commercial buildings, schools, process plants, anchor bolts, lintels, etc. Some of the projects that we have done are
  10. Liberty Middle School – 340 tons of structural steel
  11. Tuffy’s dog food processing plant – provided the walkway which was 12 feet tall
  12. Talk about each project on this screen
  13. Talk about each project on this screen
  14. In order to be more efficient and have everything done under one roof, we built new facility and moved into the building in September of 2014 In order to continue to grow our organization, we utilized some available grants through the EDC which Tiffany will tell you about
  15. Mark from the EDC drove by the new facility being built and tracked down who was building it Mark stopped by the Fargo office to talk to Tim and let him know about the available funding Mark left Tim with a big stack of papers to begin the process of applying for the funding Tim was busy running his company and didn’t have time to work on the paperwork…that’s where I came in
  16. We started by applying to be a primary sector business as that is required in order to be eligible for the other funding Once we were approved as a primary sector business, we applied for the ND Automation Income Tax Credit to assist with the cost of the machinery that we had purchased to increase our efficiency in our facility We then applied and were granted a business income tax exemption for five years in ND We have also utilized the Workforce 20/20 training grant program which has allowed us to offer training to our employees on the new machinery along with many other topics Thanks to the EDC, we were given approximately
  17. In grants and tax credits Pause and hope the audience claps I would suggest that every business owner takes the time and effort to reach out to the EDC
  18. To look into what programs are available in Fargo Moorhead I know the application process can be very overwhelming and intimidating, but the EDC is here to help Thanks to Mark and the EDC, Integrity Steel Supply has been able to continue to grow our company due to money saved I would like to thank Mark for all of his guidance and I would like to thank the EDC for investing in Integrity Steel Supply Tim come up and thank Mark, the EDC & Tiffany
  19. I’m fortunate to be able to drive my kids around today and say “Hey, look over there, Integrity Steel provided that steel”. Thank you.
  20. Good morning & thank you. You might not realize this, but I probably would not be standing here this morning if it was not for you… I will explain later. Raise of hands. What percentage of you consider yourself an entrepreneur? The formal definition
  21. Our definition
  22. A place to work, meet, learn, and socialize for freelances, independents and small business owners.

  24. A call from a mayor “following you, like what you’re doing, want you here in MPLS, what can I do to help?” The Minneapolis Grain Exchange trading floor. The very place that put Minneapolis on the global map - The milling capital of the world. Mayor Rybak, now calls this the Brain Exchange…
  25. CoCo is revolutionizing the workplace and is a global thought-leader in enabling the mobile, startup and entrepreneurial lifestyle through a social/working hub. Our members are thinkers, makers and doers.
  26. As I travel the country I am asked this question often. I’ll tell you what I tell them… It all started with some early conversations with the Kilbourne group and Emerging Prairie. and TEDx Fargo… Wow, this community is on fire. 5 schools in a small geographic area a robust economy that is enabling entrepreneurs a redeveloped downtown core pride GFMEDC has been a great partner. Starting with Jim’s commitment to get a collaborative space in Fargo back at the MidwestChat years ago, to the financial support, the business introductions, and the ability to convene groups in the area. If it was not for the shear will and determination of the folks we met, we might have missed what was going on here in Fargo.
  27. Why is it important to Fargo? you want / need to keep entrepreneurs to build their companies and stay connectivity to those you can invest and support is critical
  28. The impact of Entrepreneurism It is the fastest growing part of our economy It is enabling people to do the work of their dreams People can work anywhere on anything, and they want to have an impact while making money People are choosing their coworkers The current and upcoming generations are mobile The future of the workplace will be more collaborative and molecular Retaining the youth will be a critical part of any cities effort in the future - a supported and networked entrepreneurial community is the foundation Continue to embrace it vs. trying to fight it… Cities across the globe are now realizing this… We have received calls from Mayors and civic leaders across the nation asking us to come to their city, or if we would help them create a location of their own. We know what it takes, and not every city has it. Fargo, does and is making progress in building a thriving entrepreneurial culture, but there is work to do…
  29. - Don’t check off the box, entrepreneurism is never done Communities form, they are not made… Be a mentor Encourage entrep’s to get active in a community of their peers (not just socially) Be active yourself. Lead by example, and book meetings in our space Become a sponsor - show the entrep. community that you care and this is important for Fargo
