Clint Betts grew up in Spanish Fork, Utah. He spent his first years in foster care before being adopted, an experience that left an indelible mark and led to the book he's writing now.
He is the CEO of Silicon Slopes, the nonprofit that serves Utah's technology and startup community. He started what became Silicon Slopes in 2013 as Beehive Startups, a small publication covering Utah founders, and has spent more than a decade building it into a community of entrepreneurs, events, and programs, including Utah's largest annual tech gathering.
Clint is also the founder of CEO.com, a global media platform and community focused on leadership, and the publisher of Utahn, a journal of the American West.
His first book, Chance, is a collection of stories and essays about foster care, adoption, faith, fatherhood, and the idea that the chances we give to others matter as much as the ones we take on ourselves.
He lives in Utah with his wife and four kids.
