Business
As a Chamber of Commerce, business development is a high priority especially as we look to grow and diversify our economic base in the South Puget Sound. Enhancing the economic vitality of life in the region takes more than just growing business. It takes partnership. It needs resources.
By connecting you to business leaders, the workforce, and other resources, the Chamber creates a stronger, more dynamic climate that can make a difference in the success of your company. Throughout the year, the Chamber offers seminars, workshops and other programing to support skill development in your business.
The Small Business Development Center at Highline College specializes in providing business and training services to entrepreneurs and existing businesses in order to be successful in today's economy.
