Utah Insight
Silicon Slopes Sparks Tech Economy
Season 1 Episode 7 | 25m 53sVideo has Closed Captions
Utah is experiencing a tech boom, but it’s not without some growing pains.
Some say the tech boom in Utah was made possible by the state’s pioneer spirit. We’ll take a look at how Utah’s history helped pave the way for Silicon Slopes, and address the issues that came along with it —such as education & training, loss of jobs in rural communities, the gender pay gap, and supporting women in tech —as well where we go from here. Plus, how did COVID-19 change remote work?
