BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP

OPPORTUNITIES TO CONNECT

Meet other local business owners, entrepreneurs and community leaders.

We recognize that a strong, vibrant business community is the result of business owners and professionals working together toward that goal. The NCCofC regularly host events that encourage our members to meet in person, to learn about one another’s businesses and seek out opportunities to collaborate. We support business by connecting people.

OPPORTUNITIES TO LEARN

Seminars, workshops and educational events designed to help you succeed.

We know how challenging it can be for businesses to keep up with new rules and guidelines, to stay on top of the ever-evolving social media landscape and remain ahead of consumer trends. The NCCofC seeks out recognized experts and industry leaders to provide clear, concise and convenient updates so our members can focus on the business at hand.

OPPORTUNITIES TO BE SEEN

Marketing, promotional and advertising options exclusive to Chamber Members.

From social media posts and shares to direct referrals and sponsorship opportunities, the best promotion is more promotion! The NCCofC celebrates our members’ achievements and promotes their events. With tools including the online Membership Directory, we help members reach a broader audience and remind the community to support local businesses.

OPPORTUNITIES TO BE HEARD

Ensuring the voice of business is represented at all levels of government.

In addition to membership in the Ontario Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, the NCCofC regularly collaborates with neighbouring Chambers of Commerce for purposes of business advocacy, We strive to provide our members with access to elected officials through events including “Meet the Candidates” and various featured speakers.

OPPORTUNITIES TO BE INVOLVED

Members can take an active role in building this vital business community.
