The Intermountain Business Alliance (IBA) is a regional coalition dedicated to strengthening the business climate of Utah and the broader Intermountain West. Founded to unite the voices of industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and policymakers, the Alliance serves as a bridge between the private sector and government, working to identify barriers to growth and advance reforms that drive competitiveness.
IBA organizes high-impact events, including the Utah Regulatory Reform Listen & Learn Forum, that bring together federal, state, county, and local leaders with industry stakeholders to address overburdensome regulations and build actionable policy solutions. By fostering dialogue and collaboration, the Alliance ensures that businesses—large and small—have a seat at the table in shaping reforms that support innovation, investment, and long-term economic prosperity.
With a focus on regulatory reform, business competitiveness, and regional collaboration, IBA partners with chambers of commerce, trade associations, elected officials, and national advocacy organizations to amplify the concerns of Utah’s business community. Its mission is simple but powerful: remove barriers, expand opportunity, and strengthen the foundation of economic growth in the Intermountain region.
