| John Regetz |
Regetz has spent nearly his entire career in economic development in the Midwest and South Dakota. His last stop, at the Michigan City Economic Development Corporation in Indiana, lasted about six and a half years.
The Bannock County Development Corp. lost its director when Gynii Gilliam went to work for the Idaho Department of Commerce.
Regetz said that he has experience working with industries that would fit in well with Pocatello’s economy, including the high-tech and national computing sectors in Urbana, Ill.; and “advanced manufacturing” in Michigan City.
“The whole scope of my career seems to have been preparing me for this position,” Regetz said.
The Bannock County Development Corp. works with companies, governments and other organizations to coordinate economic development efforts within the county.
Regetz will start on March 19.
