Our Mission

To serve the interests of businesses and promote economic prosperity and better quality of life across the Chiltern region.

Chiltern Chamber serves the interests of businesses across Chiltern region.
Through our four strategic priorities, we seek to facilitate success for our members and our region: support SMEs, particularly through information and networking; support skills and training initiatives; and work to ensure a positive economic and business environment.

Key Objectives

The Chamber has three key strategic objectives and a number of closely interlinked objectives:

Supporting our
members

The Chamber would not exist without its members and therefore aims to enhance the members’ success. We help members navigate and expand their businesses in a challenging marketplace. We do this by providing a suite of useful services and benefits for members.

Through
Networking

Networking with a group of like-minded individuals is a powerful marketing tool. It exposes you to information, thoughts, ideas and experiences of others.

The Chamber organises ‘Breakfast Club’ meetings, and monthly get-togethers which include a mix of social, informational and topical events.

Events are open to members & non-members, though we do urge non-members to consider Chamber membership if they attend regularly and make use of our networking platform.

Conducive Business
Environment

The local business community is supported by identifying and developing strategies which will facilitate the growth of existing and future regional business and trade. We aim to provide a liaison and communication service to businesses, encourage major sustainable development of business and investment, and support business growth. We do this by identifying and undertaking tactical programmes for the benefit of business.

Economic
Development

We aim to promote the standard of living and economic health of Chesham and Amersham by championing positive quantitative and qualitative changes. This may include the development of human capital, infrastructure, environmental sustainability and other initiatives. We recognise that economic development is a policy intervention endeavour with aims of economic and social well-being of people and will therefore seek to work closely with local councils and UK authorities towards that end. Economic growth will be a process of economic development. A long term aspect of the economic development strategy will be to facilitate inward investment both from outside the region and overseas.

Encouraging Tomorrow's
Workforce

Chiltern Chamber regards the development of skills and young people in the region, as a precondition of building for sustainable economic growth in the area.

The Chamber supports skills development in various ways:

  • Activities of Committee members
  • Sharing information relating to skills, training & vocational education
  • Encouraging our members to participate in work experience schemes
  • Support of certain initiatives, such as the inaugural Bucks Skills Show
