Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce
The Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce seeks to grow, improve and protect the Greater Miami business community by advocating, educating and convening. For over 116 years, the Greater Miami Chamber has served as a force for positive change through two world wars, the civil rights movement, the information revolution, "Paradise Lost", Hurricane Andrew, and the recent era of national and international immigration that have made South Florida what it is today. Our members drive a business agenda at federal, state and local levels. As the champion for the Greater Miami Business Community, we are dedicated to building the best environment for business in the Americas and committed to improving the economic vitality of South Florida. Our advocacy efforts are focused on four main priority areas: Education & Workforce Development, Resilience, Transportation & Workforce Housing.
Services include: 1) educating members and the community on key economic/community issues affecting South Florida; 2) advocating for the business community and supporting key legislative initiatives; 3) providing leadership development opportunities; 4) connecting businesses in distress to community resources aimed at preventing layoffs and encouraging economic growth; and 4) providing health care insurance to small businesses.
