The importance of why we do what we do.
Our Chamber exists to serve four core functions for its members. These include:
- ADVOCACY - as a significant voice of business, we support legislative policies and practices conducive for a thriving business community and local economy, and oppose those that are not.
- BUSINESS RESOURCES & SUPPORT - we connect local businesses to resources that reduce barriers to growth and expansion.
- LEADERSHIP & PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT - we offer opportunities for professional growth and leadership development to members and their employees.
- VISIBILITY & CONNECTIONS THAT MATTER - we provide marketing, events and relationship-building opportunities to help members make strategic connections.
Membership is an investment in your business and community.
The bottom line is your membership investment not only brings value to you and your business, it also helps ensure the long-term vitality of our community. Collectively, we have a real impact on the business climate. The Chamber exists to help your business be successful and advocate on its behalf.
We coordinate and lead advocacy efforts, provide business resources, support and assistance, all while creating countless opportunities to make strategic connections with members and the community at‐large. What we do is not only important, but essential to the growth and stability of our greater Springfield area.
