I am the captain now
News
You may know me, or you may not, but this is Jessica here giving you your weekly dose of UTL news and updates. Liz is busy doing a bazillion other things so she has entrusted me with the management of our newsletters. I will do my best to continue bringing the sass every week and making this a newsletter you actually look forward to getting instead of one that sits unopened in your inbox.
So let’s get this party started and get into the good stuff!

Events
Get these on your calendar!
May 18th 5:00-7:00 pm
Grab some work friends and instead of stopping at a local pub, head down to The Shop for our new monthly mixer!
Some of these may be themed. Some may have snacks. Some may have the most ridiculous Q&A you’ve ever experienced. Some may even have trivia. This one? This is just to get us all back in the same room together. Because we miss you.
May 25th Noon
Earlier in the month we chatted about the difficulties we see in the classroom. Now it’s time for solutions. Join our panelists and advisors as we talk prevention, rather than reaction.
May 25th 4:00-6:00 pm
Join the CEO of the Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity, Ryan Starks, as we chat about all the funding the state specifically reserves for companies like yours. From general grants based on industry to emergency funding, the state has a lot to offer by way of cash and guidance.
Join us for this event at The Shop, 350 E 400 S, on the 3rd floor for a casual discussion with the head of GOEO and other staff.

September 28th
Every year, Utah Clean Energy brings together 400+ of Utah’s leading clean air and climate champions for our Party for Clean Power. This year’s event is scheduled for Thursday, September 28, 2023. We are back at Mid-Valley Performing Arts Theater, lining up amazing performances, speakers, and guests. Tickets coming soon, in the meantime, mark your calendars.
