Meetings Northwest is excited to announce its newest venture in destination management. With nearly 50 years in combined conference and event planning experience, we brought our interests, talents, and professional experience together with our love of Montana to create MNW Destinations. As Montana’s premier destination management company, MNW Destinations is thrilled to show you how a corporate event held in Montana, with accompanying one-of-a-kind activities from our favorite places, can be just what your company or team needs to boost creativity, leadership, and cohesiveness.

When was the last time you felt all your senses were engaged in your work? As you sit at your desk, your mind is firing and your fingers are flying on the keyboard while you meet with your team. The brightly lit space is filled with conversation and focused plans while the smell of refreshments on the conference table lingers – pastries and coffee delivered by the local favorite. You’ve left your routine behind for a moment, in order to add some creativity and hopefully find a spark to guide your company’s renewed direction and synergy. Now imagine you look out the window to view the incredible mountain ranges that call Montana home. Your team is working efficiently because the afternoon’s activities include a guided fly-fishing tour on Montana’s film-famous rivers followed by a farm-to-table meal prepared in the city-voted best restaurant. From the corporate conference planning to the after-hours activities, MNW Destinations provides the experience, expertise, and details to boost your company’s ability to thrive.

It’s no secret – we love Montana. As CEO, Traci brings her love of Missoula, Bozeman and the Flathead, along with her advanced education and professional talents, to the heart of MNW Destinations. Amy is our Glacier and Flathead Destination Manager and has built a network for corporate planning while building her love and knowledge of the beautiful and scenic mountains she lives in. Our local Bozeman and Yellowstone expert, Genevieve, brings her wide array of international studies and military experience home to life on a family ranch in the place she always called home. Autumn provides the brain power behind logistics, which comes from her experience with her own family ranch in the Bitterroot Valley. Kasey gives everything she touches a creative and colorful boost, drawing on Montana’s rich and diverse culture for inspiration. As a fellow homegrown Montanan, Ashley’s love for the outdoors and memorable experiences help her make an impact on social media. Our copy editor and the woman we thank for keeping our words in the right order, Nicole, fell in love with Montana the moment she set foot here 15 years ago. Her advanced education and direction help us produce top-of-class products every day.

Here is what you can expect to see in store from MNW Destinations:

  • Professional planning for your corporate event among pristine mountain ranges.

  • The best local eats for all of your catered or dining event needs.

  • Friendly Montana customer service and personal recommendations based on experience.

  • Enhanced team after-hours activities planned to meet your organization’s unique needs.

  • Your own love for Montana that will draw you back again and again.
