  • How Chambers Work Together: From Local Voice to Regional Impact

  • Ever wonder how your local Chamber of Commerce connects to the bigger picture?

    Chambers of Commerce are part of a network that helps ensure the voice of business is heard at every level.

    Your local Chamber is closely connected to the businesses and communities it serves. It understands the issues, opportunities and priorities affecting businesses on the ground and provides a local voice for its members.

    Provincial and regional chamber organizations bring those local perspectives together, creating opportunities to identify common priorities and advocate on issues that extend beyond individual communities.

    As the Atlantic Chamber of Commerce, we bring together Chambers of Commerce and Boards of Trade from across Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick. This network allows local business concerns to be shared, connected and elevated when issues affect businesses across communities, provinces or the Atlantic region as a whole.

    It’s about working together — not replacing the local voice, but strengthening it.

    When Chambers and Boards of Trade work collectively, businesses have a stronger opportunity to be heard on the issues that matter to their communities, their provinces and the region.

    One network. Many communities. A stronger voice for business.

    Truth and Reconciliation

    Recognizing the importance of education, the Chamber encourages businesses to provide comprehensive training for management and staff on the history of Indigenous peoples, including the legacy of residential schools, Indigenous rights, and Aboriginal-Crown relations. Emphasizing intercultural competency, conflict resolution, and anti-racism, these efforts aim to foster a more inclusive and harmonious corporate environment rooted in mutual understanding and respect. Learn more click here.
