2013 Utah Economic Summit Program

Dear Summit Participants,

Thank you for being at the forefront of Utah’s growing economy.

On behalf of MediaOne of Utah, I would like to welcome you to the seventh annual Governor’s Utah Economic Summit. As we turn this year toward a brighter business future, Utah has led the nation through the recovery. Utah and its business leaders are breaking out into new ventures that will solidify our state’s future in the national and global economy. Every new opportunity requires our attention and investment to thrive.

Adversity has only strengthened our resolve as we exit the worst economic recession since the Great Depression. As a state, our strong fiscal principals on sound economic practices continue to position us to be recognized as the “Best State For Business” by Forbes Magazine – a repeat distinction from 2010 and 2011. As the nation is only beginning to stabilize from a wildly volatile economy, with little change in national unemployment rates, Utah’s economy has served as a model of stability for other states to emulate our best practices. Our economy has expanded 2.3% consistently since 2006 and remains a bright spot for entrepreneurs and business stakeholders.

Unemployment remains one of the lowest in the nation. Because of our strong workforce, Utah remains relevant to expanding companies. We are becoming the preferred destination for their growth. Utah’s business community and governments emphasize innovation and efficiency to generate growth across our state. We must continue to invest in our workforce and next generation of talent to maintain our strength.

Today, the challenge remains for business leaders, to recognize opportunities and strengthen our position as the premier state for doing business. Utah is a state of “best practices” and that’s the essence of this year’s summit. Highlighted by Gov. Gary Herbert’s address, the summit will provide a powerful forum for you to network with colleagues, glean thoughts from industry experts and find new ways to position your organization to expand into the future.

We hope you will take full advantage of the opportunities afforded by the summit, including attending discussions, presentations and panels that will help you improve every facet of your business.

Best regards,

Brent Low President & CEO MediaOne of Utah

As Utah continues to be the benchmark for economic performance in this country, we have an obligation to remain focused and investing in our future.

Gary R. Herbert

Governor of State of Utah

Gary Richard Herbert is Utah’s 17th Governor. Prior to becoming Governor, he served as Lieutenant Governor under Governor Jon M. Huntsman Jr. for nearly five years, before taking the Oath of Office on Aug. 11, 2009.

Governor Herbert was born in American Fork, Utah, and raised in Orem, Utah. After graduating from Orem High School, Mr. Herbert served a two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints in the Eastern Atlantic States Mission.

While attending BYU, the Governor met and married Jeanette Snelson, from Springville, Utah.

Shortly after their marriage, the Governor joined the Utah National Guard and served for six years as a staff sergeant working with target acquisition, artillery and ground survey.

After his military service, the Governor began a career in the real estate industry, founding Herbert & Associates Realtors, an Orem-based brokerage firm. He also served as president of the Utah Association of Counties and the Utah Association of Realtors.

Governor Herbert and Jeanette founded a child care service, The Kids Connection, which they operated for 23 years. In 1990, he was elected to the Utah County Commission, in which capacity he served for 14 years. Governor Herbert served on 23 committees during this time, two of which were the Provo Orem Chamber of Commerce and Utah Water Conservancy District.

The Governor currently sits on the National Governors Association Health and Human Services standing committee, the Healthcare Reform Task Force and the newly created Homeland Security Special Committee.

In his inaugural address, Governor Herbert outlined his three main priorities of economic development, public and higher education, and energy development.

MORNING KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Larry Andreini

Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer

RIDEMAKERZ

An entrepreneurial business leader known for having the requisite vision - as well as crafting and implementing the necessary strategic plans - to achieve business goals, Larry Andreini offers a unique blend of entrepreneurial and executive acumen, capital formation experience, executive team building, marketing, licensing, and global corporate and business development.

As Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer of RIDEMAKERZ, Larry built an award-winning and profitable retail business from concept to delivery. He secured launch funding; he sourced and recruited an executive management team with experience from Disney, Sony Entertainment, Leap Frog, Bain Consulting, BMW and Toyota; and he formed key corporate licensing arrangements and fulfillment partnerships with such diverse companies as General Motors, the Ford Motor Company, Chrysler/Dodge, Toyota, BMW, NASCAR, Build-A-Bear Workshop, Warner Brothers, MARVEL, and the Walt Disney Company. He also led the team that developed a supply-chain of high-quality, socially compliant manufacturers in China. One of Larry’s most significant achievements at RIDEMAKERZ was the formation of a cross-divisional partnership with The Walt Disney Company, including Walt Disney Imagineering, Disney Parks & Resorts, Disney Consumer Products, the Disney Store, and Marvel Consumer Products, which led to RIDEMAKERZ being named Disney Store’s 2010 Global Most Innovative Vendor.

RIDEMAKERZ was also named Chain Store Age’s “Worldwide Retail-Store-of-the-Year” three years in a row: 2008 (Best Attraction Retailer), 2009 (Best Pop-Up) and 2010 (Best Pop-Up). In 2009, the Ford Motor Company recognized RIDEMAKERZ with the Henry Ford Global Licensing Award for “Best Consumer Outreach,” and the company also won the highest honor awarded by the National Association of Parenting Publications of America, the “Gold Medal for Toys.”

Previously, while serving as Executive Vice President of Corporate and Business Development at SIMPLEXITY. A venture-backed Telecommunications Exchange, SIMPLEXITY is today the leading eCommerce and Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) solutions provider in the wireless industry. Larry was responsible for forming distribution partnerships with Microsoft and Best Buy, including $15M in strategic investments, as well as forming fulfillment partnerships with AT&T, MCI, Sprint and many other firms.

Early in his career, Larry learned the value of high-leverage strategic partnerships. As the Founder and CEO of START, Inc., he formed start-up partnerships with both MetLife and NationsBank, each investing $5M and providing key delivery infrastructure. He also led the company’s business development efforts with US Travel Systems, MCI, Hertz, Mobil, Club Med and GE Capital. This led to his first nomination as an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year in 1993.

Larry holds a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing from the University of Notre Dame, where he also played on the Fighting Irish football team (1981 Sugar Bowl). He was also a two-time Bengal Bouts Heavyweight Boxing Champion.
