Meet Our Board
We’re an award-winning multidisciplinary team based all across Utah; with chapters in Salt Lake City, Utah County, Northern Utah, and Southern Utah.
Our passion for entrepreneurship drives us to create engaging partnerships that improve the lives of black professionals and business leaders across the state.
We work with businesses and people to create a more equitable Utah.
Values
The Utah Black Chamber's values are rooted in advocacy, representation and financial enrichment. Since our inception in 2009, we've wanted to cultivate a chamber culture that demonstrated our devotion to improving Utah's business community by connecting a pipeline of resources to underrepresented and minority owned businesses across the state.
We lean heavily on "Allyship", believing that if we all work together to create thriving small businesses and develop recognized professionals, we will keep Utah as the state with the best economy in the nation.
