Science, technology, engineering and math, the so-called STEM fields, are often considered the future, not just in Arizona, but in a lot of communities across the country. The Arizona SciTech Festival hopes to get residents here excited about them.

Jeremy Babendure, executive director of the Arizona SciTech Festival, talked about this year’s events. Darcy Renfro, the director of the Arizona STEM Network at Science Foundation Arizona, also joined him.
