An introduction to Edinburgh Chamber

A special event to mark the Chamber's achieving membership of 2,000 companies

Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce is a dynamic member-led organisation, working to support the local business community and specifically our 2,000-strong network of member businesses. Our job is to strengthen the position of our members and ensure that the interests of local businesses are heard. We can help any size company at any stage of development to grow and prosper, and as the UK Chamber of the Year, we'd like to think we're doing a decent job!

The Chamber's services and range of activities include:

Help for your business

Whatever the needs of your business, we can help you find cost-effective solutions that will help your business to thrive. Whether you're looking to start a new venture or develop an existing one, we can provide a one-stop shop for all your business needs.

Networking events

Through our broad programme of events you can meet with potential clients and suppliers as well as network with other Edinburgh and Lothian business people who can help you out with information, support and contacts.

Training and skills development

Our innovative and engaging training methods are designed to be interactive, practical and enjoyable, inspiring change and improving performance.

Membership services

With an incredible expansion over the past few years of the products and services we can offer members and partners, we now have an unbeatable package of business development and networking support.

Social responsibility

We want all Edinburgh's residents to have equal access to employment, self-employment and training opportunities. We have developed a number of creative ways to ensure that marginalised or disadvantaged groups are included in mainstream activities.

Policy and campaigns

We work hard to deliver policy representation for its membership. Our campaigning work is channelled through our Policy Groups, to which all members are warmly encouraged to join or contribute.

Partners in Enterprise

A limited number of opportunities are available to join our Partners in Enterprise network, a strategic alliance of serious business players and large corporate organisations located in and around the city of Edinburgh.
