TOOWOOMBA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Chamber AGM lunch looks to Toowoomba’s future
BUSINESSES are currently operating in a time where an unprecedented rate of change is impacting every aspect of how they “do business”.
Disruptive technologies in the digital space are changing how people connect with information, products and services and businesses are faced with performing in an environment where speed to market and customer insights present both challenges and opportunities.
While the environment in which businesses operate is changing continually, chamber’s reason for being remains steadfast.
Businesses and our members are the very core of everything that we do at the Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce.
We are dedicated to providing our members with the support, expertise and representation that they need to grow and prosper.
Advocacy is our core purpose. The Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce is an independent voice for its business members and for the Toowoomba business community.
Advocating has been front of mind for chamber throughout the year and we have taken every opportunity to represent our members at a local, state and federal level.
Our effectiveness as a chamber is only made possible with the support of our members and our network of related chambers throughout Queensland and Australia.
To represent the voice of business effectively, it is vital that chambers work and stand together on the issues that matter to business.
Small business is so very important not only to our local economy but to the overall fabric and vitality of our community.
As a business community we need to work together to ensure we maintain an environment that supports sustainable and profitable businesses into the future.
I am very pleased to be joining the chamber board at the AGM today and am proud of what the Toowoomba Chamber board, staff and members have achieved over the past year collectively.
As an independent, business membership organisation that is nationally and internationally recognised, the Chamber is the vehicle through which we can build a strong, united voice for business. Let’s continue to grow the momentum – what is good for small business is good for our community.
