About Us
Our Vision
Our vision is to be an invaluable resource for all LGBTQ+ and allied businesses to foster the success of our members.
Our Mission
We strive to create long lasting partnerships between key organizations and businesses, ensuring both growth and visibility for the LGBTQ+ community and allies in Utah.
Our History
Established in 2012 as the Utah Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, in February of 2019 we changed our name to be more inclusive to the Utah LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber strives to bring inclusion and belonging to businesses throughout Utah. We welcome all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, that means our allies, too! Our Chamber and our members play a crucial role in paving the way to advance the LGBTQ+ business community throughout the State of Utah.
We represent approximately 300 small business, corporate, and nonprofit members who share the values of promoting equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging in the workplace.
The Utah LGBTQ+ Chamber serves as a connector across the state, bringing the community together through business while advocating for civil rights and small business.
