"David and his team at C3 have shown great confidence in all of us here in Idaho, and we have great respect for what C3 brings to our state and the Twin Falls community," Governor C.L. "Butch" Otter said. "We share a commitment to fiscal responsibility and civic virtue, and that makes for a tremendous partnership. We look forward to a long and productive relationship with C3, and welcome this company's arrival as a strong endorsement of the quality of our people, our policies, and our path forward to renewed prosperity."

"We are thrilled that we could be a part of the successful public/private partnership.   C3 and the TFURA have clearly demonstrated that with strong public programs in place that encourage private enterprise to relocate or expand, companies are willing to make the investment.  We are proud to welcome our newest business to the Twin Falls family," said Gary Garnand, Board Chair for the TFURA.
