State economic development leaders are seeking input from communities on issues impacting Utah's economy.
The Division of Business and Economic Development is attempting to identify key economic clusters in the state. Government and business leaders are being encouraged to share their ideas with the administration online at dced.utah.gov/clustersblog or via e-mail at clusters@utah.gov.
Those clusters will be the topic of a free "technology@breakfast" event from 7:30 to 9 a.m. Friday at the Alta Club, 100 E. South Temple. A panel discussion will focus on industry's role in creating economic clusters.
RSVP by contacting Annette Babisz at ababisz@utah.gov or by calling 801-538-8879.
