2018 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
elcome
Chamber Members and Visitors! I am proud to represent the SCV Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the third largest city in the County of Los Angeles. Our small town spirit, strong local leadership, and focus on business has made us one of the most business-friendly cities in California. ​ With a 94-year history representing more than 45,000 member employees, our chamber is the leading business advocacy organization in the Santa Clarita Valley fighting for local businesses, big and small.
The Chamber promotes all businesses in our valley in many ways. We advocate at all levels of government to deter detrimental legislation and taxation as well as advocate for all initiatives that promote growth and strength for our members. We provide several monthly networking opportunities for our members of all sizes of business to connect, engage and build their networks. The Chamber produces events that allow our members access to their elected officials, build a sense of community around our mission, honor our veterans, and highlight business achievements. This year, we have refreshed, enhanced, and expanded our programming to best meet the needs of an evolving and modern business community. We are striving to increase our member value and provide them with new resources to grow their businesses. The SCV Chamber has evolved to best meet the needs of our members for today and lead the way into the future so we can be a stronger, better Chamber of Commerce for the Santa Clarita Valley.
