OUR MISSION

The mission of the Chesapeake Gateway Chamber of Commerce is to promote an economic environment which attracts new businesses while allowing established business to prosper. The Chamber is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in the region it serves by reinvesting its resources in all phases of community life.


OUR COMMUNITY

The Chesapeake Gateway Chamber of Commerce serves a beautiful area on the east side of Baltimore County, including a vast waterfront.  Come dine in our restaurants, visit our parks and amenities, sail from our marinas and take advantage of our business opportunities.


A Letter from the President

The east side of Baltimore County is an exciting place to do business!  Our Chamber is dedicated to working with our members – small and large 

With Route 43 providing a link across the major arteries of our area, we are located strategically to embrace growth opportunities with new business parks, new housing developments, new schools and new plans to truly make our area the gateway to the Chesapeake Bay. Recognizing these opportunities and our membership growth in nearby communities, we have adopted the trade name, “Chesapeake Gateway Chamber of Commerce.” Our commitment to our Essex, Middle River and White Marsh members is not diminished at all, and the Essex-Middle River-White Marsh Chamber of Commerce remains our official corporate name. We have the best of both worlds!– to develop and support a vibrant business climate. We’re all about serving our members and promoting our businesses.

Our Chamber works for you. Our Legislative Committee keeps an eye on issues before the Maryland General Assembly that affect our businesses and communicates with our elected representatives. We sponsor several events each year to offer our members opportunities to meet their officials face-to-face to talk about what matters most to them.

Our Workforce Development Committee supports the education of our next generation of workers and sponsors an annual principal’s breakfast and a major teacher awards event. They also oversee our annual holiday effort to help needy families.

Our Program Committee has its finger on the pulse of business issues and plans meetings and events designed to bring expertise and build relationships that benefit members.  The Salute to Hometown Heroes dinner honors police, firefighters, National Guard and medical personnel throughout our area, showing our appreciation for their daily dedication and sacrifice. Our Business Awards/Hall of Fame dinner celebrates the achievements of our members.

Our Marketing Committee spreads the news about how our Chamber can work for you. Our website, www.chesapeakechamber.org, promotes our members and serves their needs to find workers and connect to other businesses in our area.

Our Membership Committee members are just the folks you want to talk to, if you aren’t already part of our Chamber! And if you are a member, share this with a friend or colleague that would benefit from joining us.

I encourage you to get involved in your area Chamber and your community. We can do even more together! Take it from me, it isn’t just volunteering, it’s an investment in your future.
