Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce

What Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce does

The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce is a nonprofit business membership organization headquartered in Provo, Utah, serving businesses across 25 cities in Utah Valley. Founded in 1887 as the Provo Chamber of Commerce, the organization expanded to its current regional scope in 2010 following an earlier 1985 merger of the Provo and Orem chambers. It is governed by a Board of Directors chaired by former Utah Governor Gary Herbert and led by President and CEO Curtis Blair. The Chamber operates a tiered membership model with annual dues ranging from $1,500 (Bronze) to $30,000 (Platinum), plus a small professional staff handling government affairs, marketing, events, and finance.

The Chamber's service portfolio is organized around three core service lines: Media Mix (directory listings, newsletter features reaching 4,000+ business leaders, social media promotion), Networking Events (signature events including the Executive Summit at Sundance, Growth & Prosperity Summit, Chamber Golf Classic, and member-exclusive mixers), and Community Engagement (committee participation, Executive Roundtable seats). Supporting initiatives include the Women's Business Network, Ambassador Program, Member Engagement Committee, Growth & Prosperity Compact, and the Dignity Index — the latter being an eight-point political speech measurement scale co-developed with University of Utah researchers. The Chamber also operates the Altabank Business Accelerator, a 10-week program in partnership with Altabank and iHub that reports a 47% average annual revenue lift among participants, and distributes a bi-monthly Chamber Chats video series produced with Easton Parkhurst Productions.

The Chamber's revenue model is predominantly recurring membership dues supplemented by event sponsorships and promotional service fees. Its go-to-market combines a community-led, membership-based model with event-driven acquisition and retention, supported by a mobile app on iOS and Android. Strategic partnerships span flagship sponsors (Altabank), educational institutions (BYU, UVU, Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions, Mountainland Technology College), and as of January 2026, appointed lobbying representation through TKO Law & Advocacy. The Chamber maintains a Board of Directors that includes representatives from Huntsman Cancer Institute and major regional employers, reinforcing its position as the primary convener of Utah Valley's business and civic ecosystem.
