PARK CITY, Utah — In a significant initiative aimed at bolstering the local economy, the Park City Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau has officially launched the Summit County Business Survey. This survey invites local business owners and employees to provide crucial feedback that will help shape future programs, benefits, and advocacy efforts throughout the region. The Chamber recognizes the importance of gathering diverse insights from the business community, ensuring that the voices of all stakeholders are heard and considered in future planning.
Collaboratively developed with RRC Associates, the Summit County Business Survey targets a wide range of participants, including business owners, senior leadership, managers, and frontline employees operating in various sectors across Summit County and the Wasatch Back. The survey is accessible online, and local business representatives are encouraged to complete it by the deadline of February 28, 2026. To incentivize participation, respondents can opt into a weekly drawing for a $100 Mountainkind card, which can be used at various local businesses.
Jennifer Wesselhoff, President and CEO of the Park City Chamber & Visitors Bureau, expressed her appreciation for community involvement in this initiative, stating, "As we look to continue to evolve our programs and expand partner offerings, we appreciate everyone who takes the time to share their perspective with us. The Summit County Business Survey helps ensure our efforts are guided by the real needs, challenges, and priorities of our local business community."
The survey covers several critical areas that align with the Chamber’s mission to support a robust local economy. Key topics include current membership benefits and resources, additional offerings that businesses would like to see, preferred communication methods, opportunities for seminars and training, advocacy efforts, and the overall health of the tourism economy. By focusing on these areas, the Chamber aims to gather comprehensive data that reflects the diverse needs and aspirations of businesses in the region.
The feedback collected from the survey will play a pivotal role in informing future programming and refining member services. The insights gained will also enhance the Chamber’s advocacy initiatives, ensuring that they are effectively representing the interests of businesses across Summit County.
