Highlights:

Rich Innovation | 316 West 200 South Ste. #107
Software Development and Consulting
Justin and Kristina Rich have been working in the software industry for more than 15 years.  Over the years, it became clear that their greatest strength as a team was the ability to solve complex business problems with a combination of technology, experience and ingenuity.

GoldenComm | 307 West 200 South Ste. #5002
Internet
Like a lot of companies, GoldenComm started with one person in his parent’s home. For us, that person is Jason Lavin and that year was 1996. Then and now -- the mission has been to build websites that work harder. Today, GoldenComm has four offices (Salt Lake City, Newport Beach, Warsaw, Poland and Pune, India) on three continents and provides Internet Programming and Marketing Services to over 500 customers -- ranging from Fortune 100 to Mom-and-Pop. “We help big companies work small and help small companies work big.”

Crossroads Guitar Shop | 329 W. Peirpont Ave. Ste. #100
Musical Instrument Sales/Service
After living in Washington D.C. Aaron and his wife moved to Utah in search of the right city. They saw an opportunity for a good downtown guitar shop that is open late and on Sundays. ”I picked the Pierpont building for its historic charm and atmosphere that will help make my shop a bit of a "destination" outside of the products and services that I offer.”  With over 25 years experience as a musician this is a shop for everyone.
