The Chamber brings area businesses and civic leaders together to promote growth and create opportunity in our region.
Our members — which represent eleven counties, three states, and roughly 600,000 employees from thousands of companies and organizations — mean a lot to us. Which is why we want to make sure that we are equipping our members with tools that maximize their benefits.
Whether you join us at City Hall for our weekly gathering, attend a D&I program, or invest in your young talent, we want to make sure that you are at the Heart of Good Business.
Connect with an Ambassador
Our Ambassadors, a group of committed Chamber members dedicated to welcoming current and future members, are a unique resource. As a third-party, the Ambassadors assist new Chamber members with a fresh perspective, acting as an extension of the Chamber’s Member Engagement Team.
Invest in your young talent
All Chamber members with Corporate and above membership are allotted at least one membership for our Young Professionals Council (YPC). YPC connects ambitious, visionary young people with a strong, diverse network of peers, mentors, and regional business and civic leaders. With nearly 2,000 young leaders working in diverse industries and environments throughout Greater Philadelphia, YPC is a great resource for young professionals in our region to make meaningful connections.

Members monitor and evaluate proposed legislation in Philadelphia City Council and develop the business community’s position on initiatives that affect the private sector, such as taxes and business costs.
State Legislative Committee
Members meet quarterly to analyze state legislation and regulations affecting businesses and lobby officials to pass business-friendly legislation.
