Comments from the Chairman

COMMENTS FROM THE 2020 CHAIRMAN

While 2020 has posed challenges for us all I continued to be inspired and energized by you. Your generosity, your acts of kindness, large and small, make a difference, bringing us together. Making us stronger together.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, we’re grateful for your partnership as we look forward, positioning our Chamber for future-focused success. Like the organizations you serve, the Chamber’s business model is changing in both ways seen and unforeseen. How we do business, how we engage in the future will change. What’s unchanged is our commitment to our mission – supporting member businesses to create a thriving community. Your commitment to the Chamber through your membership renewal is crucial and supports our efforts to convene, lead and support. We’ve been here for 110 years, through ups and downs, and we intend to keep the streak alive.

How you and your organizations have responded and the leadership you’ve shown provides us both great pride and great hope for both a dynamic economic recovery and synchrony for a thriving, unified community. Thank you. It’s an honor to serve you.

Please continue to rely on our Chamber to be an enduring partner. The Chamber’s website, albanyga.com, and social media assets are stocked with relevant resources, guidance and business information as we navigate these uncertain times.

To continue to borrow a line from Phoebe CEO Scott Steiner, Together We Rise. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve alongside you.
