We talk constantly about protecting Montana. Our land, our towns, and our way of life. But how often do we stop to ask who actually owns the economy underneath it all?
Who Owns Montana? takes a closer look at capital, ownership, power, and the financial systems shaping communities across the state. In this keynote, Michael Gardner explores what happens when more of Montana's businesses, land, and economic opportunity are owned by the people who live here.
The conversation asks a simple but important question: What might change if Montanans owned more of Montana?
Join us at The Covellite for an evening of ideas, conversation, and a closer look at who holds the economic power in our state.
