In the News from Members
Utah Open House Raises $34,000 for Local Schools
"We recently hosted our second annual open house at our Utah office, bringing together partners and friends from across the region. As our Utah presence continues to grow, so does our ability to making a positive impact. This year, guests came together through a silent auction that raised $34,000 for the Davis Education Foundation, supporting local students and schools. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening one rooted in connection and purpose."
We were honored to welcome you to the launch of Cyclic Materials’ first commercial-scale facility
"It was a pleasure to celebrate this important moment alongside our investors, advisors, customers, partners, government representatives, and industry leaders. The support and enthusiasm displayed underscored a shared commitment to building a secure, domestic, and circular supply chain for rare earths and critical minerals."
Mesa’s Tree Planting Season Is Here
"Fall means cooler temperatures—and the start of tree planting season in Mesa! The ideal time to plant native and desert-adapted trees is October through March.
Throughout the 2026–27 season, Mesa will partner with community organizations and volunteers to plant trees across the city. Through the Trees Are Cool Initiative, residents and businesses can also help grow Mesa’s tree canopy by planting, caring for, and recording shade trees."
A Wrap on Rio Salado MNCP
"Over the past two years, AZ StRUT partnered with Rio Salado College to help veterans succeed in the Microelectronics and Nanomanufacturing Certificate Program (MNCP).
Through AZ StRUT's Hardware Techie Experience, 80 veterans across five cohorts received refurbished laptops to support their studies and their careers well beyond graduation."
