Industry Icons - Conversations with Sanpete's Global Business Leaders
Description
Join the Sanpete County Chamber of Commerce for a special Industry Icon event featuring Dr. Roland Christensen, a Sanpete County native whose vision and innovation have built globally recognized companies without ever leaving home.
From humble beginnings in a garage in Fayette, Dr. Christensen has pioneered advancements in carbon fiber technology that now impact industries ranging from aerospace and firearms to medical prosthetics and consumer products. As the founder of ACT Aerospace, Christensen Arms, Freedom Prosthetics, and FutureComp, his work has created hundreds of high-skill jobs right here in Sanpete County while setting international standards for performance and innovation.
At this event, Dr. Christensen will share his journey of building world-class businesses in a rural community, offering insight into entrepreneurship, innovation, and the power of investing in your own backyard.
The event will be held at The BLDG 178 on May 20th at 5:30:00 PM. Dinner will be provided, with tickets priced at $10 for Chamber members and $15 for non-members.
