Mark your calendars for Friday, September 27, 2019 as we bring together LGBTQ+ and Ally business owners throughout Utah at our inaugural LGBTQ+ Economic Summit.

Whether you are an aspiring business owner,  new business owner, or been in business 50 years, there will be a nugget or two for you to expand or start your business!

We are excited to kick start our event with Salt Lake County Mayor, Jenny Wilson. She will give us an overview of what's happening with business in the County.

All the way from Washington D.C.-We welcome Jason Rae from the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) who will educate us on how to procure more contracts from national suppliers with the LGBT Business Enterprise® (LGBTBE®) designation.
