The average annual salary for the new jobs is in the $55,000 to $60,000 a year range. Datacom will initially operate out of the Center for Innovation in Grand Forks, before eventually relocating to a larger facility. The company provides business software solutions for the manufacturing industry. According to Keith Lund, vice president of the Grand Forks Region Economic Development Corporation, Datacom received an incentive package totaling $1.15 million. The financing included public and private money from the Griggs-Steele Empowerment Zone, Bank of North Dakota and North Dakota Development Fund, Grand Forks Growth Fund, the Grand Forks-based Valley Angel Investment Fund and Bismarck's Northern Plains Investment Fund.
