Gilby
Gilby is a tiny city in northwestern Grand Forks County in northeastern North Dakota's Red River Valley farmland, a small farm community with a base of agriculture, sugar-beet and potato farming, and the trades and service businesses that support the surrounding farms. Its prairie setting anchors a small rural economy. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Gilby area's agriculture, trades, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
