New for 2023: Company and Representative Tags

New company tags, like Women-Owned, Veteran-Owned, and BIPOC-Owned, will assist the Chamber with data and sourcing for DEI+B initiatives. These tags are also searchable in the member directory within the member portal. To add company tags: within the member portal, under the Company Information tab, select the Additional Information tab. 

New self-identification tags for member representatives are optional and will not be published publicly. This information will only be used by Chamber staff to help launch or expand DEI+B initiatives and opportunities, such as grants, assistance programs, and mentoring. To add representative tags: within the member portal, under the Personal Information tab, select the Additional Information tab.
