It’s always interesting when I am asked about the value and relevance of the Chamber in today’s business climate.

Ultimately the Chamber’s value and relevance is demonstrated in the delivery upon a single goal: to further the interests of businesses in a local area. And in the current Atlantic Canadian economic climate, furthering business interests is critically important.

We need talented people for existing businesses, so they can maintain operations, and we need to attract new businesses to diversify, expand and grow our economy—both of which require support to be successful.

The Chamber is a key contributor to building a positive, supportive climate for business. Our support can take many forms depending on the needs of business and the community (e.g., urban, rural, multilingual, etc.), but commonly it includes advocating for business interests to government on public policy, enhancing knowledge sharing, hosting events for new business prospecting and exchange, and offering benefits and savings on the services that help businesses bottom lines.

The Chamber can be a voice, a connector, a resource, a support and a cost saver for your business, for the community.

We are the largest accredited business organization of influence in Atlantic Canada.
