The wide array of programs and initiatives GOED offers are robust, diverse and offer Utah businesses a distinct advantage.

Our Corporate Recruitment team offers a wide variety of tools to help Utah businesses grow. GOED’s International Diplomacy office helps Utah businesses expand into foreign markets and plays host to foreign dignitaries for the governor. The Pete Suazo Utah Athletic Commission regulates unarmed combat sports. Our Talent Ready Utah team works to prepare students for the competitive workforce.

Two state offices and one more initiative are also part of GOED: the Utah Office of Tourism, the Utah Office of Outdoor Recreation, and the Utah Film Commission. The tourism office works to promote Utah as a world-class destination for both locals and foreign visitors. The state’s outdoor recreation office — the first of its kind in the nation — helps ensure Utahns live a healthy and active lifestyle. The Utah Film Commission promotes Utah’s prosperous film industry and manages the Utah Motion Picture Incentive Fund.
