ABOUT THE CHAMBER
Monthly Seminars and Educational Events
We hold monthly events in the morning, lunchtime
and sometimes after hours to provide networking and educational opportunities, most at no charge. We participate in six multi-Chamber events each year, a legislative breakfast and a luncheon with the Governor. We also have eight community orientated Signature events and two General Membership meetings.
Referral Groups
The Chamber has six referral groups that meet regularly to provide referral exchanges, education and support.
Professional Recognition
The GSPACC participates in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s annual State Awards Program. Every year we submit nominees from among our members, and for the past five years we have boasted the most Award winners in the entire state in categories such as Entrepreneurial Success, Family and Woman Owned Businesses, Minority Owned Business, and Home- Based Business.
