Matt Jore

Mr. Jore has over 25 years of experience in power tool and industrial markets.  Matt co-founded Boulder Wind Power to leverage in the wind industry a unique electric motor and generator design he co-invented at Core Motion, Inc.  He is currently CEO of Core Motion, a technology development firm which partners with product companies to develop and deliver industrial and consumer products that leverage the proprietary Core design. 

Prior to founding Core Motion, Matt was founder, CEO and Chairman of Jore Corporation, an innovative power tool product company based in Ronan, Montana.  Under his leadership Jore Corporation grew from a start up to a publicly traded company with more than $50 million in annual revenues and partnerships with major OEM power tool multinationals including Makita, Black & Decker/DeWalt and Bosch.  Mr. Jore developed a business strategy to create a low-cost pathway from “raw material to end user toolbox,” partnering directly with major retailers, including Sears, Home Depot, and Lowes, to match value-add to supply chain and to expand web-based opportunities.  As part of the strategy, Mr. Jore developed innovative processes under a manufacturing philosophy that he dubbed “Technological Vertical Integration” (TVI), resulting in global competitiveness in product categories generally considered commodities. TVI incorporated technology into processes and allowed domestic competitiveness over Asian manufacturers at superior quality levels.  Matt received his Business, Political Science/Economics BA from University of Montana.
