Jon Mott, Buu Nygren and Moroni Benally

As the end of the Utah legislative session is fast approaching we acknowledge we still need to reach out to many of you that have expressed interest of involvement (please bear with us)

To recap that conversation, Aspire Ability is currently engaged in building remote tech-based jobs in the Navajo Nation utilizing an approach that side-steps arduous federal barriers that make development (in any form) difficult on all Tribal lands.

The realization of this vision depends on a mutual investment in the untapped opportunities available to Tribes - and all underserved communities throughout Utah.

The Cambridge Innovation Center (CiC) represents another significant way to activate these opportunities for Tribes and citizens of Utah.

CIC representative Dougan Sherwood will be visiting Utah to evaluate potential opportunities in Utah March 3-6, and we invite you to the welcome reception Friday at 6 Duvin Pintor RSVP above (donations accepted and appreciated but not required)

Moroni Bennaly, Jon Mott, Joel Smith, and Joe Murvallo

The CiC itinerary is available at 7xCX.us and below.

CIC is an organization founded in 1999 at MIT guided by the belief that strong innovation ecosystems help to propel economic development and social impact.

CIC works with communities and education providers (as do We) to train individuals to localize, enhance, and capitalize on current infrastructure to lift and build a better global society. 

We are aligned with Hudu Academy, an accredited credential based company that takes into consideration degreed and non-degreed competencies

We are aligned with The NSF engines program, a bold new initiative aimed at significantly expanding our Nation's innovation capacity by investing in key areas of national interest and economic promise. Our consortium is particularly well aligned to partner with CiC as we have presented the Accelerant Greentech Energy type 1 innovation engine and the CommonMission.us type 2 innovation engine to the National Science Foundation (NSF) which are both pending NSF approval. 

Accelerant BSP LLC and Common Mission Projects

We truly have an opportunity to collectively make a difference, turn tax takers into tax payers and create great things. This quest eclipses all borders and agendas. To that end, we request you think of ways you can be part of the solution.

We look forward to your response of interest (recognizing time is short) and are eager to work with you to affect change for our Indigenous peoples and underserved communities.

Ahxé’héé (Thank you) and Best Wishes for the upcoming week and beyond!
