Energy is becoming one of the defining issues for our region’s future. The question is whether it will be a constraint on growth or a catalyst for it.

This morning’s State of Energy breakfast was a reminder of why we all need to be at the table.

At Greater Spokane Inc, we remain committed to serving as a convener, bringing leaders together to engage in thoughtful conversations and pursue innovative solutions for our region.

A special thank you to Heather Rosentrater for her keynote and to our outstanding panelists!

We’re also grateful to our event sponsors:
⚡ Avista Utilities
⚡ Kalispel Economic Authority (Kalispel Tribe of Indians)
⚡ Inland Power & Light
⚡ ICCU

Please join us at our next event: State of Housing 🏠 https://f.mtr.cool/ltganrexfg

A community roadmap for public health and safety has been built. Now the real work begins.

The Safe & Healthy Spokane Task Force released 14 recommendations designed to transform our region's approach to public safety and behavioral health. Developed through thoughtful dialogue, cross-sector collaboration, and a commitment to hearing diverse perspectives, these recommendations are now in the hands of our region's elected leaders.

Yesterday was not the finish line. It was the starting point. The future of a safer, healthier Spokane depends on all of us continuing the work together.

We are grateful to have served as a key convener alongside: Downtown Spokane Partnership, Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce, Waters Meet Foundation, and Avista Utilities.

This week’s Member Monday spotlight is on Knudtsen Chevrolet!

Family-owned and operated since 1939, Knudtsen Chevrolet has been a key part of the fabric of the Inland Northwest. For generations, they've helped keep our region moving while building a reputation rooted in passion, excellence, legacy, and transparency.

One of our favorite traditions? Their annual Grad Night Giveaway, where one lucky high school graduate drives away with a car of their own. It’s just one example of how Knudtsen Chevrolet continues investing in the community.

Their team continues to go the extra mile for Spokane and we’re proud to have them as a GSI partner! Check them out here: https://f.mtr.cool/hiqgzfeckv

That message came through loud and clear at the Downtown Spokane Partnership's State of Downtown breakfast this morning!

Downtown Spokane is beyond full of possibility. Our team left encouraged by the momentum, investment, and collaboration driving our urban core forward. While challenges remain, today's event was a great reminder that progress is happening and that Spokane is at its best when we work together.

Thank you to Emilie Cameron, Mayor Lisa Brown, and Julia Y. Huang for helping paint such a compelling vision for our downtown's future.

And we're especially excited to see Chris Bovey's "Vintage Alley" come to life!
