• Utah has 70 percent of its adult population online.
• Regarding Internet domain names per firm, Utah was fifth in 1999, 11th in 2002 and third in 2007.
• Utah was among the "top five movers" climbing up the ranks since 2002 in both the "managerial, professional and technical jobs" and "export focus of manufacturing and services" categories.
Perry noted that all of the index categories fit well with the state's economic cluster strategy and that the report will be useful to state officials.
"I think this report is very informative and well-grounded in solid economic principles. Because of that, the rankings will be built into our policy decisions. These are really the elements of the New Economy that we're dealing in, and Utah needs to be poised in these areas to exceed expectations. I think this is one of those studies worth taking note of and worth using to set policy."
