Forward Sioux Falls is the proven and successful joint venture economic development partnership between the Greater Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce and the Sioux Falls Development Foundation. Since 1987 we have raised more than $52 million to enhance economic development efforts and improve the quality of life of the region.
The Sioux Falls area has changed tremendously since that first campaign – more jobs, expanding superior medical facilities, dozens of education opportunities and better shopping and cultural activities. Forward Sioux Falls can´t take all of the credit for our community´s successes. However, we have been instrumental in bringing the right people together and creating the right environment to allow for growth and progress in our region.
