Finding the Balance

Utahns work hard and play harder. There are 58 National Parks in the United States, and Utah is home to five of them. We like to call them the Mighty 5^®.

Our mountains house 12 major ski resorts, which Ski and Powder magazines consistently rank among the best. They’re minutes, not hours, away from our cities and airports.

Speaking of cities, Utah is also home to the Sundance Film Festival, award-winning dining, and a thriving arts scene including theater, symphony, opera and ballet.

Neighbors San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Denver are just an hour and a half away via our own Delta hub.

Targeted Industries

As Forbes Best State for Business, the State of Utah enjoys a strong and diverse economy. Our success is due in part to aggressive support from state lawmakers to grow our targeted industries. With innovative programs to expand access to talent and capital, improve supply chain, share industry expertise, drive university research, and promote international trade, Utah is fertile ground for new business.
