Utah County Commission Message Benjamin Franklin said, “When you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” This quote rings true in many aspects of life, and there are few more important things than planning for growth in our community. Your county government values your continued community input, and the Utah County Commission stands unified in utilizing your input as a community. We are your elected officials, and we are here to serve you and help implement these ideas. The 2020 Census showed us the secret is out. The State of Utah is the fastest-growing state in the nation, with Utah County leading that percentage growth. Utah County is the greatest place in the country to live and raise a family, but it will only remain that way if we plan for our future appropriately. Our rapid growth in this county is the most important issue that we face. We have seen firsthand the problems that occur when growth is not strategic nor well planned. Whether we are ready for it or not, the growth is coming. Because of this, we as your government officials are excited to support your efforts as citizens, community leaders and businesses to address our most crucial needs and come together to prepare for our future.
“We have the fortune of standing on the shoulders of great leaders from the past, and, as a result, today we enjoy great prosperity. Now is our time to lead as we plan for the future when it comes to infrastructure, transportation, housing and water. The business community in Utah County is one of our shining stars, and we all benefit as those businesses dream, innovate and grow.” – Commissioner Bill Lee
“Working with cities and towns, particularly within the south county area, is key to understanding and getting ahead of the explosion in Utah County’s population and economic growth. While the county commission will continue to support their efforts, mayors are key to addressing these tremendous opportunities.” – Commissioner Thomas V. Sakievich

Executive Board Chair Message By 2065, Utah County will add 1 million people to its population, with an estimated 85 percent of that increase coming from internal growth. With that enormous growth comes both challenges and opportunities. As chair of the Executive Board of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce, I am excited to see the Chamber driving and initiating partnerships with businesses both large and small. Together, we will address the complexities growth will create in our county both now and into the future. The Utah Valley Chamber, as a regional organization, is in a unique position to serve as a place for innovation and collaboration. Our Chamber brings together key influencers to facilitate pro-business policy and act as a representative for business interests in our community. We highlight, encourage and support the countless leaders in our community who are working to develop a flourishing environment for growth. The Chamber also connects businesses with other stakeholders in the community — nonprofits, educational institutions, faith-based groups, healthcare providers, government and more — so all can work toward building a future where our children have opportunities to work, live and play in our beautiful valley. This magazine is part of our effort to connect with people throughout the community and let them know about the many activities and initiatives of the Chamber as well as how the Chamber can help their business or organization thrive. It also describes the Chamber’s work to achieve the vision for Utah County set out in the two-year Valley Visioning process. We encourage you to read about our efforts and support the advertisers who have made this magazine possible. Through strategic and thoughtful planning now, we will be able to meet the challenges of intense growth and become a stronger, even more vibrant community. We invite all to join us as we look toward a bright and prosperous future. Janae Moss Chair, Executive Board, Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce

Executive Chair Gary Herbert Chamber Board of Directors The former leader of the State of Utah has recently taken on a new role guiding the future of both the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce and Utah Valley business and community development. Utah Gov. Gary Herbert was named executive chair of the Chamber’s Board of Directors last May and brings an exciting amount of experience in both business and government to the organization. Born and raised in Utah County where he worked as a realtor and businessman, Herbert served for 14 years as a Utah County commissioner, four years as Utah’s lieutenant governor and 12 years as Utah’s governor. “The intent of the Utah Valley Chamber is to have a strong, united voice for business, to make sure that what we do in government, for example, is conducive to helping the entrepreneur be successful, to help businesses be successful, and to have a strong, healthy economy,” Herbert said. Herbert has a long history with the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce. Initially called the Provo Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber merged with the Orem Chamber of Commerce in the 1980s to become the Provo/Orem Chamber of Commerce. Herbert’s father, Duane B. Herbert, was chairman of the board of the Orem chamber at the time and a motivator behind the merge, he said. Herbert was also good friends with former Utah Valley Chamber President Steve Densley, competing against him in high school sports and serving with him in the Eastern Atlantic States Mission of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 14 • Utah Valley Chamber • www.thechamber.org
During his career as a businessman and later as he entered public service, Herbert was involved with the Chamber, filling a seat on its board of directors for many years. “I saw the importance of the Chamber being a voice for local business,” Herbert said. As executive chair, he believes a major role of the Utah Valley Chamber is promoting a healthy, diverse economy in the valley, something he was able to do as governor. “Utah is in a unique position of being the fastest-growing state in America, and Utah Valley is the fastest-growing part of the state,” Herbert said. “We went from the Great Recession as a state and the worst economic times we’ve had in Utah since the Great Depression … to the point where we now are the most healthy, diverse economy in America …. So we want to see if we can keep that going for Utah Valley.” He also believes the Chamber
needs to keep businesses informed about economic conditions so they can make wise business decisions. In today’s world, this includes global issues, which can have a large impact locally. “With transportation and communication what they are today, the world’s become a lot smaller,” Herbert said. “We do business with a lot of people outside of our country …. So the Chamber’s responsibility is not just local downtown anymore. It’s beyond the borders of our town and our state and our country.” One of his top priorities is to build membership and increase value for chamber members. “I’d like to get to the point where people would say if I want to be successful, if I want to have my business be the best it can be, one of the things I should do is be a member of the Utah Valley Chamber,” he said. Through it all, he believes the Chamber should work with other chambers of commerce, cities and legislators and act as a united voice for businesses while planning ahead for Utah Valley’s future. “My kids and grandkids occasionally ask me, grandpa, tell me about the good old days,” Herbert said. “I am quick to remind them that today is the good old days. There’s never been a better time for us to be alive on this earth with a good quality of life, with opportunities .… Life is a lot easier today, and the shining example, and probably the best example, of a state having success is, in fact, Utah. We are a leader in virtually every way and every positive way, and we want to maintain that.” If trends continue, Utah Valley will eventually exceed Salt Lake County in population, making it the epicen-
ter of the state. “So it’s really a very exciting time. I think we should all be very hopeful and optimistic about the future,” Herbert said. “We just
need to make sure that that continues and things continue to get better and better. And the Chamber can help that happen.”

VALLEY VISIONING Fulfilling the vision of Utah Valley’s future Utah Valley is growing — and the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce is working to ensure that growth occurs according to a vision created by local residents. A research brief released in July of 2017 by the Kem C. Gardner Police Institute at the University of Utah predicts Utah County’s population will reach 1.6 million by 2065. This immense expansion in population will affect all aspects of daily life in Utah Valley, from transportation and education to employment and recreation. The future looks both daunting and exciting, and the good news is there is time to prepare for it. In 2018, with this future in mind, the Association of Utah County Chambers and Envision Utah launched Valley Visioning. The goal of this effort was to create a vision for Utah Valley describing the future that residents want for themselves, their neighbors and their children while also articulating goals and strategies to make that future a reality. Over the course of two years, 15,000 residents, elected officials, community leaders and topic experts came together to discuss and prioritize their goals for the future and move toward compiling a complete valley vision. Eighteen public workshops were held throughout the county to gather input and create various growth scenarios for consideration. The Valley Visioning project ended in November of 2020 with the completion of a vision document, which can be read at utahvalleyvisioning.org. The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce and its partners are now actively working to implement this vision through six committees set up to address
16 • Utah Valley Chamber • www.thechamber.org
each of the six areas deemed most important during the Valley Visioning process: business, education and workforce development, healthcare, transportation, housing and natural resources. “These six committees were formed for the sole purpose of implementing the visioning of that collaborative work,” said Curtis Blair, president and CEO of the Utah Valley Chamber. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic paused work to implement the valley vision just as the vision document was completed. However, both Blair and former Chamber President and CEO Stan Lockhart recognized that the Chamber’s countywide membership and involvement put the organization in a unique position to begin bringing the valley vision to life when COVID-19 restrictions eased. “Because of the Chamber’s regional focus, it was a natural step for us to to pick things up where they left off and take the lead,” Blair said. Formed about a year ago, the Chamber’s six committees are led by experts in the field of each committee’s focus. Made up of additional experts and stakeholders, these committees are meeting to explore how they can help Utah Valley grow in the way its residents desire and act as a resource for local businesses, educational institutions and other organizations. “I would like to see these committees preserve and protect the greatness of Utah Valley,” Blair said. “I’d like to see them in a very real way pay forward our economic prosperity to the next generation and create a legacy of leaving it better than when we came.”
Join the Valley Visioning effort The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce is seeking more people interested in shaping the future of Utah Valley through participating on its six Valley Visioning committees. The members of these committees are volunteers who serve with the goal of ensuring this valley retains its outstanding quality of life through the major population growth forecast for the next few decades. The six committees are: • Business & Environment • Education & Workforce • Heathcare • Transportation • Housing Gap • Natural Resources More information about these committees can be found in this magazine or by contacting the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce at 385-482-2555, sending an email to info@thechamber.org or visiting the chamber’s website at thechamber.org.

VALLEY VISIONING Business Environment Committee Doing business environment in a rapidly growing, changing environment can be challenging, especially when unexpected obstacles like a worldwide pandemic appear. The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Business Environment Committee was formed to help local businesses meet those challenges through providing up-to-date information, assistance and support. “We try to highlight issues that are of interest to the business community,” said Ray Chipman, Business Environment Committee chair and audit partner at Squire in Orem. “We have a goal to bring businesses together and to be proactive in making Utah Valley a great place to work — in general, making Utah Valley the place to be.” Around the same time as the committee’s beginning, the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and some of the committee members’s first actions were oriented toward being a resource for businesses trying to stay afloat. “During the last year, we spent a lot of time gathering information for businesses regarding Paycheck Protection Program loans and how they would be taxed,” Chipman said. In Utah, the rules regarding whether these loans would be taxed changed multiple times, and the committee held conference calls and events where its members shared and explained the latest information with local businesses. The committee also coordinated with the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce in promoting Stay Safe to Stay Open, a statewide initiative through which businesses committed to follow certain protocols to keep customers and employees safe during the pandemic. In addition to COVID-19 regulations, the committee has focused on legislative and other state issues such as licensing requirements. Their intent is to inform local legislators about businesses’ interests and needs while helping business owners become aware of issues and proposals that may affect them. “Utah’s always been known as a low-regulation state, a business-friendly state, and we want to keep it that way,” Chipman said. “We’re trying to make sure that city, county and state officials keep business in mind when they’re looking at laws or regulations and do what they can in order to streamline and make it as easy as possible for businesses to come here. That is one of our priorities.”

“Our committee is the driving force in Utah County for a healthy business environment. We promote deregulation, a positive work atmosphere and good public policy. We continue to promote conservative principles that will allow current and new businesses to thrive.” - Ray Chipman Business Environment Committee Chair and Audit Partner at Squire
Overall, the committee’s focus is on assisting, strengthening and growing existing businesses rather than attracting new companies, Chipman said. The committee works with the Chamber’s other Valley Visioning committees as issues such as recreation and healthcare are a large part of attracting qualified workers to the area. With the Education and Workforce Development Committee, Chipman’s committee has discussed possibilities such as helping with business and hiring fairs as well as what skill sets businesses are seeking. Chipman believes the valley is in a good position to meet the future’s challenges and see businesses thrive. “I think our valley’s strengths are that we are family friendly and we are business friendly, and we don’t want that to change,” he said. “We have to grow, we’re going to change, but as far as the feeling of family and community, we’re hoping we can do things to help keep that intact.”

VALLEY VISIONING Education and Workforce Development Committee It’s clear that as Utah Valley grows and changes, more jobs will become available and a wider range of skills will be needed to fill those jobs. To help address this need, the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Education and Workforce Development Committee is examining how it can help students and businesses find their path to success. The committee’s members represent the entire spectrum of education, from grade school to university and technical education. “Many opportunities are available to engage with education and workforce right now, especially K through 12,” said Aimee Edwards, Education and Workforce Development Committee chair and community affairs director for Western Governors University. “The committee is exploring options that would add value to Utah Valley businesses.” Part of this work is examining what Edwards called Utah Valley’s “talent pipeline.” This can be an on and off ramp process through which students obtain the education they need to get good jobs in the valley. “Our economy thrives when we have educated folks who are doing what they love,” Edwards said. Her committee is in the process of determining what businesses and students need, what programs already exist and how the committee can help bring businesses and students together. “We’re working closely with our school districts and the business community to determine the needs and how we can connect the two,” she said. Some of the possibilities include hosting and facilitating career fairs and business tours as well as getting students on the job training before they complete their education. “What we’re hearing from our schools right now is they would love the businesses to get involved or become more involved in already existing pathway programs or internship programs,” Edwards said. These types of programs can lead to employers eventually hiring students. “We know that for businesses, finding the right talent is key, and we are focused on how we can help,” Edwards said.
“This committee is focused on promoting better educational practices that will help prepare our future workforce. We drive conversations that lead to increased funding in public and higher education. We also take the lead in facilitating partnerships between the public and private sector to provide better opportunities for growth. We look forward to you participating in the the discussions that will shape the future of education here in Utah Valley.” - Aimee Edwards Education and Workforce Development Committee Chair and Director of Community Affairs at Western Governors University

The talent pipeline looks much different now than it did a few decades ago when people earned a college degree and then expected to work for a company for 30 years. Today’s students have multiple education options and can evaluate what option is right for them. “There is still value for that bachelors and master’s degree, and in addition we are exploring ways to help students that may want different options. Lifelong learning and continuing education are really important in today’s market,” Edwards said. Education is the underlying foundation of a community, she said, and it is a big part of a community’s success. “Education is the equalizer for economic mobility in a thriving community, and we need to continue to align education and workforce. If not, it would be detrimental to our kids and grandkids,” Edwards said. “We want a place where our kids and grandkids can thrive and raise families. Education is an important foundation for a successful life.”
Raising kids can be a messy job. Finding the right pediatrician shouldn’t be.

VALLEY VISIONING Healthcare Committee Healthcare now encompasses about one-fifth of the economy, making it a major concern as Utah Valley’s population grows by thousands each year. The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Healthcare Committee aims to address that concern and help the healthcare industry prepare to meet the valley’s future needs. “A strong healthcare system is vital to our community and certainly our businesses,” said Healthcare Committee Chair and Utah Valley Hospital CEO Kyle Hansen. “I think as our business leaders look at growth and expansion, they consider what healthcare is like in our area and what that looks like for their employees who may be relocating.” The Healthcare Committee’s members are a mix of healthcare and business professionals, allowing both perspectives to be represented. As they have met, committee members have determined four priorities they will focus on as they move forward. “First and foremost, the prevailing challenge and topic with healthcare — and it’s not unique to our community — is affordability,” Hansen said. “Nobody thinks about healthcare and thinks wow, what an affordable industry healthcare is.” Hansen said the committee is focusing on increasing pricing transparency and making pricing easier for consumers to understand through the legislative process. Another plan is to work with the state to reduce the cost of prescription drugs. The committee’s second focus is mental health, an issue that worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic. “Our state and our county have some of the highest rates of mental health issues, and we don’t have as many mental health providers as we need,” Hansen said. To help combat this problem, the committee helped present the Mental Health Services Awareness Summit on Aug. 19 at Utah Valley University. This event featured keynote speakers, breakout sessions and informational booths featuring various community service organizations. “The intent of this event was really to connect people with the resources that exist in our community and then arm them with more information,” Hansen said. Addressing the impact of the pandemic and the COVID-19 virus is the committee’s third priority. At first, the committee focused on helping the business community with issues like testing, but its efforts now center on education and access to the COVID-19 vaccine. “As a hospital administrator, with a full hospital right now, obviously I

want more of our community to consider getting the vaccine because we’re struggling to take care of everybody and hospital beds are filling up again across the state, unfortunately,” Hansen said. “So, that’s been a big focus point.” The committee’s last priority is the use of telehealth, which can both reduce cost while increasing access. Telehealth is a process through which patients consult with a doctor online instead of in person. Hansen said government could play a role in creating more consistency in the use of telehealth, particularly regarding what coverage insurance companies must provide. “We need to examine whether some of those restrictions that exist are making it harder for telehealth services to be safely and appropriai163060145319_0621-OCH-183586_7.5x4.9_Ad_a1.pdf ately provided,” he said.

VALLEY VISIONING Transportation Committee Moving hundreds of thousands of people throughout Utah Valley, while options are limited by a large lake and surrounding mountains, is a massive undertaking. With forecasts predicting the addition of several hundred thousand more residents within a few short decades, planning ahead becomes critical. The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Transportation Committee is doing just that — identifying priorities, then determining how those priorities can be addressed and moved forward. “The overall Transportation Committee’s goal is to make sure we have roads that are moving and we are able to move goods and services through the valley in an effective way,” said Jeremy Hafen, chair of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Transportation Committee and president of Clyde Companies Inc. “We want to stay in front of the transportation needs of the valley and promote whatever vehicles or avenues we need to in order to accomplish that.” Since its formation about a year ago, the committee has been bringing together stakeholders including state legislators, city leaders and business owners to discuss the valley’s future transportation needs. These meetings have included representation from Mountainland Association of Governments, the regional transportation planning group for urban Utah County. “MAG is a key player for this committee because they’re the ones that help determine how the dollars should be spent,” Hafen said. The committee has already seen some success as it was able to convince legislators to allocate funds to several Utah Valley transportation projects including a new Interstate 15 interchange at the southern Springville border, the Vineyard Connector road and the expansion of 1600 North in Orem. Overall, the funds have helped expedite projects that were years away from construction. “We want to stay in front of the transportation needs of the valley and promote whatever vehicles or avenues we need to in order to meet

those needs,” Hafen said. Hafen believes bus rapid transit and light rail will be key parts of Utah Valley’s transportation success. The freeways can only be expanded so much before they become noneffective. As the valley’s population grows and other potential transportation projects enter the discussion such as a freeway on the west side of Utah Lake, the Transportation Committee plans to evaluate those proposals and seek out the best solutions. “The growth is inevitable. It’s going to happen no matter what,” Hafen said, adding that his main goal is to maintain the valley’s quality of life for his seven children. “I would love to invest now so that in the future, the valley is planned well so future generations can enjoy it.” Hafen said he would like to have more representation from businesses on his committee.

VALLEY VISIONING Housing Gap Committee For the typical family, housing costs consume the majority of the monthly budget. In Utah Valley, that amount has increased as home prices have skyrocketed in recent years, placing the cost of new homes and even rental properties beyond what many can afford. The demand for housing here is unlikely to decrease anytime soon with the valley expected to see its population double within the next 20 years. Ensuring housing is attainable will be critical for everyone as Utah Valley moves into the future, from family members who want to live near each other to businesses looking to attract employees. Nate Hutchinson, co-owner of Flagship Homes, is chairing the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Housing Gap committee with a goal to identify and promote solutions to the valley’s housing shortage. Today, people are purchasing townhomes for the same amount they would have spent for homes on 8,000-square-foot lots a few years ago, Hutchinson said, and it’s going to require changes in how people think about housing — and, in some cases, changes in housing laws and regulations — to keep it from getting worse. The consequences of not acting now will be felt far beyond the housing market. “Utah used to have an edge on other markets because our housing was so much more affordable than other markets. Now we’ve lost that edge,” Hutchinson said. “The business community should be very concerned with this because they’re not going to be able to attract employees to come live and work here.” The Housing Gap Committee has been working closely with area nonprofits such as Community Action Services & Food Bank and Habitat for Humanity as well as government officials and builders to find housing attainability issues that need to be addressed and common ground in solving those problems. Hutchinson said one of the key solutions is to offer more housing options. Many cities have areas for apartments, townhomes and condominiums, but the next allowed option jumps to homes on 8,000-square-foot lots or larger. This puts single-family homes out of reach for people who can afford more than an apartment or townhome but not a home on a large lot. Housing attainability can be increased through making more housing options available, he said. For example, a “cluster”-type development with several homes coming off the same driveway can be constructed with 3,000- to 4,000-square-foot lots that provide seven to 10 units per acre. In contrast, single-family homes on 6,500- to 8,000-square-foot lots yield four to five units per acre. These are still single-family homes, but by being clustered slightly closer

“Utah Valley is facing a housing crisis. Renting and purchasing opportunities are becoming less available to our citizens. This committee is focused on solving current complexities that creates issues within the housing market. We are working closely with cities, home builders, elected officials and other topic specialists to address this crisis. We promote solutions that create a variety of housing stock that will benefit all members of our community.” - Nate Hutchinson Housing Gap Committee Chair and co-owner of Flagship Homes
together, the cost for buyers goes down. Costs can also be reduced by cities through adopting more flexible regulations; even requiring garages to be a couple of feet wider can increase building costs significantly, a cost buyers could decide not to pay or put into adding another bedroom or bathroom. “We need to look at the greater community and provide different housing options for everyone,” Hutchinson said. Historically, Utah has been a community that built log cabins and grew crops to make things ready for those who were immigrating to the area, Hutchinson said. He hopes to convince today’s residents that there are many benefits to providing more housing options. “When we allow a wide variety of housing units to be built in our cities, it provides our children and grandchildren with homes they can afford,” he said. “This allows them to enjoy the same community and quality of life we and others have enjoyed during the past 150 years while also helping conserve water and improve air quality.”

VALLEY VISIONING Natural Resources Committee The beauty of Utah is often what attracts people to move here. The mountains, the lakes, the outdoor recreation opportunities — it all adds up to an exceptional way of living. With those benefits, however, comes the responsibility of preserving the natural resources around us. “Really, the quality of life — if you’re going to move to Utah — is what attracts you,” said Chris Anderson, chair of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Natural Resources Committee and a partner at Dentons Durham Jones Pinegar. Preserving Utah Valley’s natural resources and utilizing them responsibly affects all aspects of life here, from recruitment and retention of employees to the health and well-being of residents. Anderson’s committee has been gathering information about these issues through meeting with representatives of environmental organizations and stakeholder businesses such as power companies. They’re now using what they’ve learned to determine priorities and how they can support those priorities. “We’ve got some great natural resources here in the valley, but they’re limited, and so we need to make sure that they’re allocated appropriately so our residents have enough to live and work here,” Anderson said. The committee’s stated priorities include supporting trail projects in Utah County, promoting outdoor recreation events and championing mass transit infrastructure projects. One of the big issues locally is Utah Lake and the ongoing efforts to beautify it and make it more usable for recreation. To assist in these efforts, the committee organized a service project in July at Utah Lake that cleaned up an area known as Lincoln Point. “We spent the morning basically pulling weeds and willows and cleaning up a boat ramp that had been so overgrown, it couldn’t be used anymore,” Anderson said. About 50 people participated in the project, which also included cleaning up an area for trail access along the lake’s shoreline. The committee is now considering hosting a “Clean Air Day” that would inform local employees about how they can help lower pollution levels in the valley. During Utah’s 2021 legislative session, committee members were actively involved in examining legislation and supporting proposals they felt would further the preservation of Utah Valley’s resources. They plan to stay

involved in the legislative process. While protecting natural resources is a priority, it’s also a goal of the committee to work with businesses and learn about their concerns. “We don’t want to make it impossible for businesses to operate because they can’t have the infrastructure they need,” Anderson said. He believes the county is headed in the right direction, and his committee will serve as a resource to the community. “Obviously, growth is coming, and it’s necessary and it’s our future, but we need to be smart about it,” Anderson said, “and so I think we all need to be willing to help out with that effort because it’s going to take some thought and some planning.”

YOUR CHAMBER AT WORK Chamber President & CEO Curtis Blair With more than 25 years of experience in marketing, consulting and negotiation, Curtis Blair has taken on the role of president and CEO of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce as it looks to grow its role as a regional chamber representing the interests of businesses throughout Utah Valley. “The future is so amazingly bright,” said Blair, who took over his new position in September of 2020, replacing former Chamber President and CEO Rona Rahlf. “I stand on the shoulders of some great people and I feel their presence here,” Blair said. “I feel their legacy and their passion for the valley.” Originally from Denver, Colorado, Blair has spent time living on both the east and west sides of the Mississippi River. He came to Utah to attend Brigham Young University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree from the College of Humanities. “I love to read,” Blair said, adding that he has started a book club for Chamber staff and board members. Blair and his wife stayed in Utah Valley after he finished his schooling because they loved it here; he turned down job offers that would have taken his family away from the area. During his career as a businessman, he started six different businesses in a variety of fields. He sold two of the businesses, including one that was purchased just before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. An avid golfer, Blair had volunteered to help with the Chamber Classic Golf Tournament in 2020, and while he was working on that project, Lockhart approached him about taking on the role of Chamber president and CEO. With extra time due to the sale of his business, Blair decided to apply for the job. Through conducting business in Utah Valley, he had seen first-hand the value the Chamber brought to its members through networking opportunities and building relationships. He also recognizes the role that the Chamber, as a representative of the entire valley, can play in encouraging strategic planning in the area as the population continues to grow. “Being a regional chamber with a very specific focus on valley-wide issues is where we are different” from local, city-specific chambers of commerce, Blair said. At the same time, he added, the Utah Valley Chamber needs local chambers to be wildly successful. They meet the local needs of the businesses that reside on the corner of Center and Main, while the Utah Valley Chamber can more effectively focus on the overall needs along the Wasatch Front in Utah County. Going forward, Blair said the Chamber has set several goals, including: • Establishing Utah Valley as a leading place to do business in the country. • Strengthening the Chamber’s position as a leader in legislative initiatives based on data-backed, principle-based public policy. • Bringing Chamber members together and providing leadership. • Increasing Chamber membership, with a goal of doubling the number of members within the next 12 months. “It’s about getting our Chamber membership together to solve the valley’s most complex problems, and it’s going to take businesses of all sizes, private and public partnerships, and increased collaboration with government and civic groups. I believe that one organization that can convene all of those disparate organizations is the Utah Valley Chamber,” Blair said. 30 • Utah Valley Chamber • www.thechamber.org

Revere Health, formerly Central Utah Clinic, provides quality healthcare at affordable costs to residents in more than 100 urban and rural areas throughout Utah. Founded in 1969 by three internal medicine specialists, Revere Health has grown to become the largest independent multi-specialty physician group in Utah.
“Revere Health is an independent, physician-owned, physican-led organization,” explains Revere Health cardiologist and board chairman Scott Bingham, MD. “That means that our physicians are not beholden to hospital or insurance interests. We believe that independent physicians are the best advocates for patients.” Revere Health also believes that patients should not have to choose between cost or quality when it comes to their healthcare. As healthcare costs continue to rise at an unsustainable rate, Revere Health has emerged as a national leader in practicing “value-based care.” This system aims to reverse rising healthcare costs by incentivizing providers based on value and outcomes, not volume of services. It also addresses cost drivers such as duplicative services, administrative burdens, and poorly managed chronic conditions. Through participation in the federal government’s Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) program, Revere Health is incentivized to look for ways to save Medicare patients money while maintaining high quality of care. As an Accountable Care Organization (ACO) accredited by Medicare, Revere Health saved Medicare patients $49 million dollars from 2015 to 2018. ACOs are groups of hospitals, physicians, and other healthcare providers that join together to better coordinate care for their patients.
“While the process of implementing a value-based care model has not been easy, the progress we have made is evidence that high-quality, cost-effective care is possible,” says Revere Health CEO Scott Barlow. Revere Health offers a wide range of services for patients and their families at every stage of life including imaging, cardiology, urgent care, family medicine, orthopedics, cardiology, radiology, and more. Our physicians strive to exhibit the principles of value-based care in every patient interaction.
“We believe the foundation of value-based care is listening,” Bingham says. “We listen to patients’ concerns and fears and then, with them, construct a care plan that meet their needs and goals.”

CHAMBER EVENTS Executive Summit Each fall, a group of top leaders in Utah Valley gathers for a premiere business event where they learn about their community’s most important issues. This event is the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Executive Summit, planned this year for Oct. 4. The all-day event is held at Sundance Mountain Resort and is open to all, but — with only 180 spots available — it sells out every year. “We’ll have keynote speakers and rapid-fire updates from local businesses in areas of vital importance” to Utah Valley, said Wayne Roberts, co-chair of the Executive Summit and director of employer/community relations at Mountain Point Medical Center. “It typically ends up being the top leaders of the top companies in Utah Valley who come.” Roberts said the overall purpose of the summit is three-fold: to build relationships, advocate principle-based public policy and promote business and community prosperity. Past topics of discussion have included the county’s economy, housing market, business developments and future planning. This year’s speakers will include Steve Lund, executive chairman of the board for Nu Skin Enterprises; James Lawrence, known as the “Iron Cowboy” who completed 100 triathlons in 100 consecutive days; Utah’s First Lady Abby Cox; former Utah Gov. Gary Herbert, Utah Valley University Men’s Basketball Coach Mark Madsen; TV personality Lisa Clark; and real estate mogul Brandon Fugal. There will also be a women’s panel chaired by Jeanette Bennett, founder of Bennett Communications. The theme of the 2021 Executive Summit is “Resiliency & Growth.” “That’s a little different, to have a theme like that, but in light of what’s happened with COVID, in light of what’s happened with our economy and businesses, we thought that the theme of ‘Resiliency & Growth’ fit so well,” Roberts said. Resiliency is something everyone is having to deal with in today’s world, he said. Some businesses have had to close their doors due to COVID-19 shutdowns, some have been just surviving, and some have thrived as never before. “The topic of resiliency is something that I think everyone wants to hear about,” Roberts said. Another large part of the summit is the opportunity to network. In fact, the times between speakers aren’t referred to as “breaks”; rather, they’re referred to as “networking opportunities.” “So many of the Chamber members end up utilizing one another’s services and businesses because you do business with who you know and who you trust,” Roberts said, “and so this provides the avenue to get to know people and to get to understand their business objectives and their values.” The 2021 Executive Summit is being co-chaired by Roberts and Amelia Thorn, director of business development at Mountain Point Medical Center.

CHAMBER EVENTS Pillar of the Valley For decades, Alan and Suzanne Osmond have worked to provide family-oriented entertainment, job opportunities, charitable assistance and more to their neighbors and friends in the Utah Valley community and those in need worldwide. In recognition of their efforts, the Osmonds will be presented with the Pillar of the Valley award during an award gala Nov. 16 at the Utah Valley Convention Center in Provo. Hosted by the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Pillar of the Valley award gala was created to honor individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to the business, civic, social, educational and cultural climate of Utah Valley. Previous honorees include John Valentine, the Woodbury Family, Rebecca D. Lockhart, Steven R. Covey, Wilford Clyde, Dallin H. Oaks and former Utah Gov. Gary Herbert. While the musical talents of Alan Osmond and his family members are famous worldwide, the most well-known contribution Alan and Suzanne have made to the Utah Valley area is arguably the Stadium of Fire. Held annually at LaVell Edwards Stadium as part of America’s Freedom Festival at Provo, this patriotic production features major musical performers and a spectacular fireworks extravaganza. The Stadium of Fire was created to replace a smaller event being held at the stadium as part of the Freedom Festival. “They were going to close it; they weren’t getting very big crowds,” Alan said. Then Carl Bacon, a member of the Freedom Festival’s board of trustees, suggested the Osmonds take over the event and move it to the next level. Alan and his brother Merrill Osmond accepted the challenge in 1980, and the Stadium of Fire has continued ever since as one of the largest patriotic events in the nation. “We represent God, family, freedom and country,” Alan said. “It’s not something that you just go hear; it’s something you go see. It’s an experience. It’s something unexpected, and that’s why it’s so great.” From the beginning, Alan wanted a show that was big, highly visual and appealed to all ages. “I also said it needed a new name,” he said, adding that “Stadium of Fire” popped into his head during a brainstorming session. With fire in mind, he went to the Provo Fire Department and asked for advice. He was invited to the controlled burn of a house where he saw flames shoot out of a “fire tree” hooked up to a propane tank. His follow-up question: “Can we make it bigger?” This was the origin of the large torches that have burned brightly during the Stadium of Fire while accompanied by the event’s theme song, which was written by Alan. After the event’s inaugural year, Merrill suggested that Alan, as the “Dick Clark of the Osmonds,” was the one that needed to own and run the show. As a result, Alan and Suzanne took over full responsibility for the Stadium of Fire in 1981. Alan used his network in the entertainment business to attract big stars to perform at the event. Suzanne said for several years, the family had to travel to Canada immediately after the Provo show because their sons, who were performing as The Osmonds - Second Generation, were scheduled to appear at the Calgary Stampede in Alberta, Canada. “I would have a motor home ready 40 • Utah Valley Chamber • www.thechamber.org

to go and we’d be signing checks until 2 in the morning paying everybody (after the Stadium of Fire),” Suzanne said. The family would then go home, pile into the motor home and leave for Canada. Alan and Suzanne also contributed to the valley’s entertainment industry through Osmond Studios, a television production studio in Orem where the “Donny & Marie” TV variety show and other productions were filmed. Alan, who served as producer for “Donny & Marie,” said when ABC wanted to renew the show’s contract, he agreed but added the show would be moving to Utah. A few experts from outside Utah were brought in to help produce the show, but most of the work was done by locals, including performers. Alan said the Osmonds enjoyed the Utah Valley lifestyle and wanted to live here, and they also believed it was important for their employees to be close to their families. Alan and Suzanne Osmond’s charitable work has included being involved with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, a nonprofit organization that has raised more than $7 billion for children’s hospitals to help cover
medical care costs for millions of children. The couple also founded One Heart, A Charity for Orphans. Through this nonprofit, royal families in countries around the world invite entertainers and others to events where money is raised for an orphanage of the royal family’s choice. Alan said the Osmonds have a philosophy that people need to give back to their community. Alan summed it up through a quote from his mother, Olive Osmond: “It’s amazing what you can accomplish if no one cares who gets the credit.” “If you’re blessed, you’re expected to give back … and we’ll keep doing that until we have no more to give,” Alan said. “But we’re not alone, our whole community is like that.” Through it all, the Osmonds have considered their greatest accomplishment to be their eight sons. All eight performed at Stadium of Fire events during their youth. Their sons, along with their grandchildren, have carried on their legacy of giving back to the community, no matter where they live.

CHAMBER EVENTS Chamber Classic Golf Tournament The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce represents businesses, but it isn’t about all work and no play. Each year, Chamber members participate in one of the most popular Chamber events: the Chamber Classic Golf Tournament. Held at a different area golf course each year, this year’s Chamber Classic was played at Riverside Country Club in Provo. “I think, for the participants, it’s a great way to get together, collaborate, connect and educate and inform about what other business leaders are doing,” said Matt Bloxham, chair over the golf tournament and account executive at Podium. “It’s networking, collaboration and then just get out and have some fun.” The golf tournament serves as a fundraiser to help sustain the Chamber, its mission and its initiatives. It’s played as a four-person scramble; teams register for a fee, lunch is provided and prizes are awarded in competitions such as putting and long drive. Sponsors and vendors are highlighted throughout the event. “At each hole, we have a hole sponsor, and as the different teams come through, they can tell them about their business,” Bloxham said. “It’s a great way to get some exposure with local businesses in Utah Valley.” Networking with other businesspeople is important, especially now as the economy emerges from the COVID-19 shutdowns, Bloxham said. Getting together on the golf course allows people to put names with faces and get to know others, learn about new businesses and discover how existing businesses have changed. Students in the Utah Valley University Ambassadors program provide volunteer service at the golf tournament. “Last year, we had more than 20 UVU students come and volunteer and learn about business and businesses opportunities,” Bloxham said. One UVU student who helped out at a past golf tournament ended up getting hired on as a full-time employee at the Chamber. Avanlee Jessop now works as the Chamber’s executive communications and event specialist. To participate in next year’s Chamber Classic Golf Tournament, visit the Chamber’s website at thechamber.org.

CHAMBER INITIATIVES Utah Valley Women’s Business Network With a new vision and a new mission statement, the Utah Valley Women’s Business Network is working to support local women in all aspects of business through building relationships, funding scholarships and even distributing small business grants. “We’re not looking at just C-level employees. We’re looking at women in all industries and all levels of positions in their jobs,” said Katie Malbica, chair of the Utah Valley WBN and general manager of Home2 Suites by Hilton in Lehi. “I think it provides a lot of support, a lot of networking opportunities and assistance in picking each other’s brains or making connections that will further each other’s businesses or even each other’s personal lives.” WBN is a partner of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce, and those interested in participating in its activities need not be a member of the Chamber. In fact, anyone in Utah Valley can join the WBN. In past years, the organization hosted more traditional events such as luncheons with speakers, but in recent years it has worked to revamp and refresh its approach. “There are so many networking groups and women’s groups and other chambers doing a lot of similar things, so we wanted to take a step back and kind of restructure ourselves,” Malbica said. The restructuring included drafting a new mission statement: “The WBN mission is to unify, build and support professional women by creating meaningful events, fostering connections and generously contributing to the local community.” “That mission statement really guides all of our current and future events and actions,” Malbica said. “So, instead of having a monthly luncheon, we now have larger quarterly events, always with the goal of fundraising in mind.” Donations made through WBN events are used to fund collegiate scholarships for women who attend Utah Valley University or Brigham Young University as well as small business grants for women-owned businesses based in Utah Valley. In 2019, the WBN gave out four $1,500 scholarships and three $5,000 small business grants. One WBN event had members playing cornhole, and for every successful toss, a sponsoring business donated money toward the cause. At another event, for a registration fee, a retired golf pro provided instruction for WBN members looking to become more familiar with playing that game in a business setting. During months when a larger event is not planned, the WBN hosts online meetings or short working-lunch-type trainings. It also encourages its members to support other women’s group and chamber of commerce events. This year, the Pleasant Grove-Lindon and Point of the Mountain chambers of commerce have become partners with the WBN and are encouraging their members to join it. The WBN’s biggest annual event is its holiday luncheon in December. At this event, the organization’s scholarship and small business grant winners are introduced and a silent auction held to raise money for WBN’s scholarships and grants. The 150 available seats sell out every year. “It’s always a really highly anticipated event and a really fun way to kick off the holiday season,” Malbica said. While geared toward women, the WBN appreciates the support of men in the Utah Valley Chamber and in women’s personal and professional lives. “It’s not uncommon at all to have men in attendance” at WBN events, Mal44 • Utah Valley Chamber • www.thechamber.org

It’s really open to everyone.” Malbica said all the WBN’s efforts are meant to give back to women in the community. All fundraising efforts are performed simply so they can reinvest in women in business. “We’re a few in a long line of strong women in this community, and we are super excited to have been
able to revamp and refresh for today’s society and just keep going with WBN and the history that comes with that,” Malbica said. “It’s just a really warm and supportive group of women. I know that it provides so much value and the opportunity for us to just give back.” For more information about joining the Utah Valley Women’s Business Network or its activities, visit thechamber.org/womens-business-network/ or find the WBN on Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn.

CHAMBER INITIATIVES Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee Hema Heimuli is an expert in organizational change and development, making him the perfect leader of an initiative looking to help local businesses maximize their profitability potential through changing their culture. As chair of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion initiative, Heimuli is creating a committee that will work to define what diversity, equity and inclusion look like for Utah County as well as help businesses implement DEI programs in their organizations. “We feel that this is a very important initiative,” said Heimuli, who also works as director of people and organizational development at US Synthetic. “It’s one that we need here in Utah County and it’s one that we feel needs to be strongly at the forefront of people’s minds and in the way that they develop their culture.” The idea of diversity and inclusion can be misinterpreted as catering to a specific group or groups, Heimuli said. However, his approach centers on promoting diversity of thought and creating a safe environment where those thoughts can be expressed. “There’s been several studies that have been done where we know organizations perform better when there is greater diversity of thought, greater diversity of people, in organizations,” he said. “There are data and there are studies out there that truly show that organizations with true diversity and inclusion perform better, and so that to me is what we are after and that to me

“We feel that this is a very mportant initiative. It’s one that we need here in Utah County and it’s one that we feel needs to be strongly at the forefront of people’s minds and in the way that they evelop their culture.” - Hema Heimuli Chair of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion initiative is what we need.” A 10-year study conducted by Google found that one of the biggest ways for an organization to be successful is to create a culture of psychological safety. This would include, for example, a culture where people felt safe expressing their views during a meeting, even if they differed from those of others. Heimuli said it is also important to consider people with different thought processes when hiring. “These are principles that we’re hoping to bring out that would make everybody be more productive, more effective,” he said. The ultimate goal is for his committee to develop a program with all the resources local companies would need to implement a DEI program in their own organization. The resources could eventually be put up on a website where companies could access them. “We understand that DEI is a big initiative,” he said. “We understand that people don’t have the resources to implement a DEI initiative, and so we want to make it easy for these organizations.” Doing so will literally result in companies improving their cultures. “This initiative is going to help organizations be more productive and increase their productivity in their culture in so many ways as a whole,” Heimuli said.
CHAMBER INITIATIVES Ambassador Program Connecting businesses with each other is part of the core mission of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce, and at the center of that effort is the Chamber’s Ambassador Program. This group of about 15 individuals welcomes new businesses to the area, honors businesses showing support for the chamber and the community, and simply lets other business owners and employees know someone else cares about their challenges and successes. “They are just so appreciative of just a friendly, welcoming hand,” said Art Warsoff, chair of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce Ambassador Program and president/owner of Transworld Business Advisors of Utah County. “If you’re opening a new business, it’s stressful, it’s chaotic, and to have somebody stop in and say hey, I know what you’re going through … sometimes, just hearing that does wonders.” The chamber’s Ambassadors host ribbon-cutting events for new businesses, which help business leaders and community members become aware of new ventures in their cities. They also name Businesses of the Month and then oversee the award ceremonies, providing recognition for businesses who are contributing in some way to their community. It’s not unusual for Ambassadors to simply stop in and talk with a chamber member and learn what’s going on and what’s important to them. “Many of us are just out in the community as part of our day jobs, and so we also are a resource to the chamber in providing input and feedback from chamber members and businesses in general as to what they

are seeing,” Warsoff said. “We probably personalize the chamber a bit more. It’s a lot different when a person walks into your business and says hello, and that’s a big role of the Ambassadors.” Each of the chamber’s six Valley Visioning committees
has a member of the Ambassador Program serving on it and providing their unique perspective to the committees’ efforts to plan for the valley’s future population growth. “We like to think of ourselves as an integral part of helping the chamber fulfill its missions,” Warsoff said.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Chamber Service Project On July 12, the Lincoln Point shoreline area of Utah Lake was overgrown with weeds and willows, preventing access to what used to be a popular recreational area. The next day, all that changed. About 50 volunteers spent several hours on July 13 cleaning up the area, opening up trails and areas for fishing. They also picked up and hauled out a considerable amount of trash. It was all part of a service project organized by the Natural Resources Committee of the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce with assistance from the Utah Lake Commission. “We used clippers and went to town cleaning the old trails, and we created some mountains of brush clippings and tree clippings” that were later mulched by the county, said Eric Ellis, executive director of the Utah Lake Commission and a member of the Natural Resources Committee. Lincoln Point is located on the south end of Utah Lake in the Lake Shore area near Lake Mountain. Utah County acquired the property within the last two years. “It has a lot of cool history,” Ellis said of the area, which was once home to a variety of resort amenities. These included a marina, a couple of boat ramps and a jetty — all of which were overgrown. The volunteers focused their efforts on clearing out brush from these facilities and old trails in the area while also picking up garbage from about 15 acres of the point. “It was amazing to see how busy everybody was during that time, especially considering it was a hot July day,” Ellis said. Opening the area up will now allow local residents to more easily use it for recreational activities. Lincoln Point is beautiful, Ellis said, and offers great fishing and duck hunting. There’s even warm springs in the area that keep the water from freezing, allowing fishing throughout the year. “All year round, it will be a popular place, and the more we can do, the more accessible it becomes and the more people can come and enjoy it,”
50 • Utah Valley Chamber • www.thechamber.org
Ellis said. The Utah Lake Commission was eager to see the Lincoln Point area cleaned up as it will be submitting a grant application to obtain funding for improving roads in the area, allowing access to potential camp sites. Clearing out the brush and trash made it easier to see the area’s potential for recreational opportunities. As a whole, Utah Lake is full of promise, and with improvements, it will explode in popularity, Ellis said. “I think the main vision is that Utah Lake has so much to offer. It is an enormous lake that is drastically underutilized because of one reason or another,” he said. “We have very limited water resources in our mountain reservoirs that are at or beyond capacity (for recreation) and yet have so much capacity at Utah Lake, both on the shorelines and out on the lake.” During the 2021 Utah legislative session, the Utah Valley Chamber worked with state and local leaders to encourage allocation of state dollars to improve the quality of Utah Lake to help it become a recreational hub in the state. “We believe that the business community not only employs the workforce, but we need to give back to the community so those who we employ can enjoy the high quality of life we have here in Utah Valley,” said Steve Lockhart, director of government affairs for the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce. “This service project is one of the ways our business community can show its concern for the preservation and protection of our natural resources.” The Utah Lake Commission provide ongoing opportunities to volunteer at the lake, including through its Adopt-A-Shoreline Program.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Utah Valley Growth & Prosperity Summit All Utah Valley residents and organizations are invited to attend a special event on Oct. 28 where they will literally be able to help decide what the future will bring. The Utah Valley Growth & Prosperity Summit will be held at Utah Valley University in the Noorda Center for the Performing Arts. Its central mission will be to highlight critical aspects of growth and feature thought leaders and subject matter experts to spark discussion, cause reflection and inspire action in the areas of business, workforce development, transportation and infrastructure, water, housing, healthcare, natural resources and education. “This inaugural summit is bringing together communities and stakeholders throughout Utah Valley to discuss and plan for the future growth and economic outlook of Utah County,” said Stephen Whyte, a co-chair of the event and associate vice president of university relations at UVU. “This summit will convey important information for every person and organization within Utah Valley.” The summit came about through a lunch meeting last year between UVU President Astrid S. Tuminez and Curtis Blair, the then newly appointed president and CEO of the Chamber. “President Tuminez’s work and involvement with businesses, organizations, cities and citizens throughout Utah County has been an example to our community in recognizing high-level trends, needs and opportunities,” Blair said. “Our joint vision of creating a Utah Valley Growth & Prosperity Summit was embraced by the entire Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce and other leaders throughout the valley.”
“Utah County was one of the fastest-growing counties in Utah over the past decade,” Whyte said. “That growth and trajectory is anticipated to continue into the future for many decades, so the residents of this beautiful valley have this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity right now to collaborate and chart what the future of our valley will be for our children and grandchildren.” - Stephen Whyte Co-Chair, Utah Valley Growth & Prosperity Summit

The areas of focus at the summit were identified through Valley Visioning, a multi-year effort through which thousands of valley residents, elected officials, community leaders and other experts discussed and prioritized their goals for Utah Valley’s future. The final document produced through this effort inspired the Utah Valley Chamber to create six committees that are now working to meet the Valley Visioning goals. All six of the chairs of these committees will take part in the presentations made during the summit. “Utah County was one of the fastest-growing counties in Utah over the past decade,” Whyte said. “That growth and trajectory is anticipated to continue into the future for many decades, so the residents of this beautiful valley have this once-ina-lifetime opportunity right now to collaborate and chart what the future of our valley will be for our children and grandchildren.” “Utah Valley continues to grow at a significant rate as it transitions to a more diverse economy with high job growth, low unemployment, a business-friendly environment and a family-welcoming community,” Blair said. “Utah Valley is poised, as Abraham Lincoln foresaw, to be the treasure house of the nation. While growth, and the need to manage it, has been our valley’s reality for 50 years and will yet be for decades to come, how we choose to manage our growth now – or not – will determine the future of the valley’s economic prosperity and quality of life.” The summit will begin with a continental breakfast at 8 a.m.; the first session will begin at 8:30 a.m. There will then be a panel discussion about the demographic and economic outlook for Utah Valley that will convey data and statistics providing a baseline of where the valley is at today. The remaining time will be broken up into different panel discussions featuring experts with a variety of
points of view. The Utah Valley Growth & Prosperity Summit is being presented by the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce, Utah Valley University and the Utah Leadership Council. Other cochairs are Utah Valley Chamber of
Commerce President and CEO Curtis Blair and Stan Lockhart, a principal at the Lockhart Group. Attendance is limited; those interested in attending are encouraged to register early. To register, visit uvsummit.com.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Mental Health Services Awareness Summit On Aug. 19, the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce partnered with Intermountain Healthcare, Utah Valley University, United Way, Blunovus and Encircle to present the Mental Health Services Awareness Summit at UVU. This event featured speakers, panel discussions and informational booths presenting information about mental health issues and services in the local community. Hosted for the past 12 years by Intermountain Healthcare, the event was free and open to the public. The goal of the event has always been to connect people with resources, and the Chamber joined in supporting the event for the first time this year. It plans to continue supporting the annual event in the future. “Partnering with the Chamber brings a new and important audience to the event. We want everyone in the community to know more about resources so we have a better chance of helping people who are facing challenges,” said Kyle Hansen, administrator of Utah Valley Hospital. “One of the goals of the Chamber is to provide value to businesses and to give back to the community,” said David Rowley, the Chamber’s representative over the summit and president and CEO of Rowley & Associates in Spanish Fork. “This project came out of that goal.” The summit was organized in the hope of reducing the stigma of mental illness and informing the public about services available in the Utah Valley area. “The design was to bring people and resources together,” Rowley said. Whether a person was looking for help for themselves, a loved one, a friend or an employee, the summit provided assistance and guidance. Rowley said he feels the importance of this type of event because his children have had classmates commit suicide in recent years. “They were friends of friends, and it really impacted them,” he said. Also, with the shutdowns brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, everyone has been struggling with some kind of difficulty, whether it’s been students and parents trying to navigate online school or workers preparing to go back to the office after months of working at home. “I truly hope that people were able to find the resources they needed to help a loved one or to help themselves,” Rowley said. “If we can prevent one more suicide or if we can prevent one more student from dropping out because they don’t feel like they belong, then we have been successful.” Videos of the opening and closing keynote speakers at the summit can be viewed at intermountainhealthcare.org/locations/utah-valley-hospital/classes-events/mental-health-awareness-night/.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Built4Life Program As of July 1, NCAA college athletes will have the opportunity to benefit from their name, image and likeness (NIL). Governance bodies in all three NCAA divisions have adopted a uniform interim policy suspending NCAA name, image and likeness rules for all incoming and current student-athletes in all sports. To help student athletes navigate the new policy and its potential financial benefits as well as prepare them for their future life and careers, Brigham Young University has created the Built4Life program. The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce has partnered with BYU to support the program. “The Chamber’s biggest role will be as a promoter of the program so that businesses have a sense of direction for their part in this new NCAA ruling of name, image and likeness. Its a program that we endorse, it’s a program that we believe in,” said Curtis Blair, president and CEO of the Utah Valley Chamber. Built4Life is a comprehensive development program focused through four main pillars: Learn: Every student-athlete will be invited to learn through various teaching mediums including university-accredited courses, diverse lecture series, and hands-on instruction where appropriate. Brand: Student-athletes will be empowered with custom assessments of their current brand values (via a third party) and provide student-athletes with resources to maximize their name, image and likeness potential. Work: A first-class internship program will assist student-athletes with obtaining bona fide professional opportunities that are targeted to the interests and skills of the individual. CAA compliance training and education. Love: Built4Life encourages student-athletes to elevate their local and hometown communities through service initiatives. Student-athletes will be taught how to create philanthropic brands by actively supporting causes of their choice. For more information, visit byucougars.com/Built4Life.

“The Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce celebrates BYU’s Built4Life initiative for its innovation and thought leadership in addressing proposed rules that would provide college athletes with endorsement opportunities. Built4Life is a common-sense approach to support the student-athlete while remaining competitive in the college athletics landscape and true to the values and principles of BYU’s mission.” - Curtis Blair President and CEO, Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT World Trade Center Utah Through a three-way partnership with World Trade Center Utah and Utah Valley University, the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce helps local businesses expand their reach into the international market. Headquartered in downtown Salt Lake City, WTC Utah’s mission is to accelerate growth for Utah companies through its global network, programs and services. Its team uses its expertise to guide business owners through the daunting task of finding markets and customers in other countries, launching marketing and sales efforts, and participating in trade missions and global meetings. The Utah Valley Chamber is a natural fit for matching businesses with WTC Utah and helping them take their first steps into the international business community. In April, WTC Utah and Utah Valley University announced a new partnership that included opening a WTC Utah office on the UVU campus. This makes WTC Utah’s expertise even more accessible and convenient for Utah County businesses. “The collaboration between WTC Utah and UVU positions Utah as the crossroads of the world,” said Aaron Starks, vice president of global business services for WTC Utah. “The opening of our new office enables even more Utah companies to have direct access to the expertise and services they need to compete and win.” With an interest in assisting Utah companies as they increase their international sales, the Larry H. Miller Group, Kirton McConkie, Facebook, World Trade Center Utah and the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce are donating $50,000 in grant funding to help companies cover the cost of the global services. Based on a company’s current international experience, those who utilize these services will begin by developing a strategy, leveraging services such as website development and global logistics, or connect directly with partners abroad through match-making.
