Through research, community collaboration and a dynamic planning process, the Keweenaw Chamber of Commerce has created a vision to be the community resource for small business, with a strong focus on support, attraction and development.

We listened to the business community, community leaders and our membership to develop our new brand and in three focused service-areas which all essentially provide information, referrals and networking.

SUPPORT: The Chamber SUPPORTS businesses by providing information and referring inquiries to our partners like KEDA, SBTSC, MTEC SmartZone, Entrepreneur Support Center, Jutila Business Incubator or whichever organization is best to assist that business. In addition we are working toward building a business calendar.

ATTRACTION: The Chamber also provides information and referrals to people wanting to visit or relocate here. If someone wants to inquire about tourism, we send them directly to the Keweenaw Convention and Visitors Bureau. And whether someone is relocating a business or family here, we will continue to send them to the appropriate community resource(s) that will meet their need(s).

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT: The Chamber is going to continue growing networking and visibility opportunities for small business. We will continue to provide ribbon cuttings, promotion, Eggs and Issues, golf outings, promotion and a monthly newsletter.

Over the next year, members and the business community can look forward to many new, exciting networking and promotional opportunities such as InBusiness Magazine, marketing and customer service clinics, and a fantastic, fresh line-up and format for Eggs and Issues. Of course, we’ll still be golfing – so please join us and hundreds of other folks who come out to golf and have fun at spring and fall golf outings. Find a complete list of events on our new event calendar. Check back often for updated event information, and please send us your events to include!

We thank the entire community for your support and patience while we work to improve services that will enhance the Keweenaw as a special place to live, work and play.
