How Will Your Business Benefit?

The Northern Utah Employer Exchange (NUEX), hosted by Weber State University, is more than just a conference. It’s a true exchange. This bold new approach to problem solving aims to bring industry leaders and WSU faculty together to tackle workforce challenges facing today’s businesses. What’s in it for you? Establishing genuine connections with industries across northern Utah, being part of the future of workforce development, and finishing the day with actionable solutions to your biggest challenges. 

At NUEX, you won’t just sit back and listen to keynote speakers or collect handouts. You’ll build actionable solutions alongside other professionals using digital bulletin boards and good old-fashioned pen and paper to dive into real-world problems that employers across industries grapple with.  

This highly interactive format is designed to spark candid conversations and honest assessments of workforce problems. Hear from northern Utah industry leaders as they introduce relatable challenges before moving to collaborative breakout sessions to analyze those challenges. Participants will then begin to determine where their organizations can have the greatest impact. By the end of the event, attendees will outline which challenges have the most actionable solutions that have and explore next steps tailored to their businesses.
 
Faculty experts will be on hand to offer research-based insights and practical grounding as business leaders explore the root causes of their workforce issues. This direct line to academic support means solutions aren’t just theoretical — they’re informed, focused, and ready to be developed further.

NUEX offers something many employers rarely get: the chance to talk openly with other business leaders from across industries and higher ed at the same time. Whether managing a small team or overseeing a growing organization, you’ll find common ground with peers who face similar hurdles.
