Related Topics: Utah, Big business

Downtown Salt Lake is many things to many people. It is home to Utah’s capital city, which includes local, national and international corporations employing tens of thousands of people. It’s the cultural arts hub of the Intermountain West, one of only a handful of cities to offer Broadway productions and professional ballet, symphony and orchestra companies. And it has become a hotbed for creative and innovative chefs offering cuisine from around the world, often sourced from Utah goods.

Salt Lake is also the worldwide headquarters of the LDS Church and home to Temple Square, the state’s largest tourism destination.
