Thanksgiving Point officials gathered Utah leaders in STEM Wednesday to brainstorm ideas for a new children's science and technology center it plans to build.
LEHI — The Thanksgiving Point board of trustees approved a new children's science and technology center Tuesday to "expand the nonprofit's mission to bring the joy of learning and the wonders of the natural world to life," according to a statement from the organization.
Those in attendance included entrepreneurs, engineers, real estate developers, investors and people from companies such as Gabb Wireless, Google Fiber, Lumio, Texas Instruments, Utah Aerospace and Defense, Deseret Biologicals, Pattern, Tesani Companies, MX, Halia Therapeutics and Entrata. Thanksgiving point spokeswoman Erica Brown said the company is investigating all possible locations for where the center will be housed, but most likely it will be built adjacent to the Show Barn. Construction is anticipated to begin at the end of 2024 with an estimated opening date in 2026.
