Business and Career professionals in the LGBTQ community face unique obstacles—obstacles like a lack of opportunity, a sense of community, being comfortable in the workplace. Now there is a new and diverse chamber of business professionals of all walks of life, coming together to surmount these obstacles, right here in SW Virginia.
We’re delighted to announce the founding of the SW Virginia Diverse Chamber of Commerce, a new chamber that is focused on promoting diversity in the SW Virginia business community.
Whether you’re an LGBTQ small business owner leading a national corporation or an ally who wants to get involved with our diverse business community, we invite you to join us. Expect the Chamber to connect you with talent, resources, events, and other professional development opportunities to help your business thrive.
Through your membership and active contribution, we will move beyond having identified the barriers faced by professionals in minority communities, to eliminate those barriers. With your help, you can expect the Chamber to put those overlooked with valuable talent, skills, and insight to work!
