Bemidji's business success mentioned in Gov. Dayton's state address

ST. PAUL—During his State of the State address Wednesday evening, Gov. Mark Dayton mentioned Bemidji as an example of the state's potential for economic diversity.

"Elsewhere in Minnesota, the City of Bemidji has seen new business openings in diversified fields, due in large part, to the city's high speed internet access," Dayton said. "Four Bemidji businesses were recently ranked among the fastest growing in the United States by Inc. Magazine."

The businesses Dayton referred to are AirCorps Aviation, Choice Therapy, Karvakko Engineering and EXB Solutions, which were all listed in Inc. Magazine's list of the 5,000 fastest-growing companies in the country. Other communities to be included in the list were Brainerd, St. Cloud and Duluth, each with two companies in the compilation.
