Speaking on Business: Penna Powers

Salt Lake Chamber

This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. Behind many of Utah's most impactful communication campaigns is a talented team of dedicated, creative professionals whose lasting success reflects their remarkable and far-reaching influence. Here to talk about their “staying power” is Dave Smith, partner and CEO of Penna Powers. David Smith: As an agency that specializes in creative advertising, public relations, digital, social media and public involvement work, Penna Powers’ mission is to move people. We care deeply about the issues that Utah faces, and attribute our 40 years of staying power to our results, our people, and our clients. Over time, the faces and functions at the agency have changed. We’ve traded in film reels and drawing boards for digital displays and software suites, but our core and drive has always been to interpret research, find key insights, apply strategic problem-solving, deliver killer creative and make meaningful connections. Whether it’s a focus on safe driving, scam awareness, voting, vaccines, new jobs, clean air, or groceries, our big, bold ideas and client collaborations provide results year after year. We’re thankful our staying power has moved people for the last 40 years. We can’t wait to see what’s in store for the next 40. Derek Miller: Having a company like Penna Powers that not only cares about the work they do, but proactively seeks to stay ahead and improve, ensures a lasting positive impact on our community.
