National Governors Association Tours Geotech Environmental Equipment

The National Governors Association toured Geotech Environmental Equipment, Inc. on behalf of the Colorado Department of Economic Development and the Colorado Workforce Development Council. The group is comprised of Business Leaders (Governor appointed Chairs of State Workforce Boards), and Directors of those boards. Participants were immersed in an experience that took them through the growth cycle of a Sector Partnership; from idea, to launch, to implementation, to sustainability.

“Geotech Environmental Equipment is honored to host the National Governors Association,” said Jeff Popiel, Geotech President and CEO. “We have worked closely with both the Denver and Colorado Offices of Economic Development to understand and create systems to support the labor needs of employers manufacturing products in the U.S.”

Founded in 1908, the National Governors Association (NGA) is the collective voice of the nation’s governors. Its members are the governors of the 55 states, territories and commonwealths. NGA provides governors and their senior staff members with services that range from representing states on Capitol Hill and before the Administration on key federal issues to developing and implementing innovative solutions to public policy challenges through the NGA Center for Best Practices. NGA also provides management and technical assistance to both new and incumbent governors.
