On this episode of the Silicon Slopes Podcast, Clint meets with Ryan Starks who is the Executive Director for the Utah Governor's Office of Economic Opportunity (GOEO). Having spent most of his life in Utah, Ryan's passionate about helping the state become a hub of business and tech opportunity by advocating to keep manufacturing as close to home as possible. Something Utah's known for is the healthcare innovations and life sciences coming from its universities, which have robust programs in these fields. They discuss Utah's recent recognition by U.S. News & World Report as having the best economy in the United States and what that means for those who live here. This amazing state is continuously expanding and has an undeniable impact on those who visit, and Ryan is highly optimistic about its bright future. "As industries grow, we attract talent from other states and so that just continues to add to the richness and vibrancy of our economy."
