Access
The Little Rock Regional Chamber affords its members constant contact with the people, resources and information which will help grow your business.
What's in it for the Chamber?
As a private, member-supported organization, the Little Rock Regional Chamber receives no dedicated public funds. Therefore, none of the Chamber's work on behalf of the business community and region would be possible without our members' annual and sponsorship investments.
The majority of our over 2,000 members have 15 employees or less. But there's strength in those numbers. From single proprietorships to the largest employers in the region and the hundreds in between, when business speaks with one voice, the public sector cannot ignore the private.
What's in it for the Region?
As America, and indeed the world, face the greatest economic challenges in generations, the strength, diversity and resilience of our Central Arkansas economy cannot be taken for granted. Only one organization focuses on the Little Rock region's marketplace - without regard to city or county boundaries. Southern Business and Development magazine’s Editor Michael Randle wrote, “If
Little Rock were a stock, I’d buy shares in it.” That’s exactly what you do when you invest in the Little Rock Regional Chamber of Commerce. The dividends speak for themselves:
