ONE UTAH SUMMIT MAY 10, 2022 SALT LAKE CITY
20 22
WELCOME ABOUT THE SUMMIT In support of Gov. Spencer J. Cox’s One Utah Roadmap initiative, the Economic Summit, Global Forum, Energy Summit, and Rural Summit have combined to create a bi-annual business super-summit called the One Utah Summit. The One Utah Summit is hosted by Gov. Cox and occurs every spring and fall, alternating between northern (#1UTspring) and southern (#1UTfall) Utah locations. At the summit, many of the state’s government and business leaders gather to discuss Utah’s economic development trends and topics in a daylong event. Gov. Cox created the One Utah Summit series to provide a platform for engaging in policy conversations. Summit programming includes today’s hottest topics and highlights opportunities available to Utah businesses at home and abroad.

The Emery County Commission stands as a shining example of what public service really is. These commissioners are dedicated to those they represent and have a vision for stabilizing Emery County’s energy economy – not for their own good but for the good of their constituents. For years, the backbone of their energy economy has been the two power plants in Hunter and Huntington. While they employ a significant number of residents, the commissioners know there is far more the region has to offer. One of the commission’s noteworthy projects is the San Rafael Energy Research Center. Because of the commission’s hard work and commitment, the center’s on track to be a national leader in medical isotope production, molten salt technology, and nuclear energy.

How the Other Half Learns Oren Cass Executive Director | American Compass; Author of The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America Employers often describe labor shortages and skills gaps as pressing economic challenges. But in a well-functioning labor market, businesses see their task as solving such problems, not lobbying for relief from them. Policymakers can play a supporting role by creating education pathways that partner with employers on preparing young people to be productive contributors to their communities. Copies of “The Once and Future Worker: A Vision for the Renewal of Work in America” are available for summit attendees by the check-in desk.
