Overview:

The Transtech Center is a new high-tech business park specifically designed to support the communication, power, and workforce needs of technology based businesses and e-commerce. It is located on Gabel Road just north of the new Shiloh Interchange on I-90 in Billings, Montana.

The Transtech Center offers a great deal of flexibility with regard to land and office space including build-to-suit options. It provides state of the art facilities in a location with unparalleled quality of life and special incentives for new and expanding businesses.

History of the Transtech Center:

In 2000, Bottrell Family Investments purchased the Transtech Center from the Big Sky Economic Development Authority (BSEDA). The Trade Port Authority & BSEDA determined that the property could best be developed privately, and BFI's strategy aligned with their vision for developing new business growth.

It is presently home to eight companies located in four buildings with three additional facilities under construction.

The Transtech Center is now in it’s fourth year of development.

Ponds and Streams:

Water features are an integral part of the design of the Transtech Center. Numerous streams and ponds are easily accessible to all Transtech Center tenants. Fish on your lunch hour? Why not!
