The Main Line Chamber of Commerce is wrapping up the 2018 year and as we do, we are excited about all the positive initiatives that have been created, not only by our organization, but by our members too.  We can't wait to see what 2019 brings.  Because of the companies and the people surrounding The Chamber, combined with our ability to connect around key issues affecting Greater Philadelphia and the Main Line,  we can only strengthen the community in which we love.  Check out this month's newsletter to learn more about our educational initiatives.

The Main Line Chamber of Commerce has expanded its leadership programs and professional development programs in recent years. We were proud to host Talent and Education Network last month when we made a special effort to attract diverse and nontraditional candidates from throughout the region to a Student-Employer Meetup held at St. Joseph’s University.  Check out this month's newsletter to learn more about our educational initiatives.

It’s clear that many companies on the Main Line are seeking a more diverse pool of applicants than they are seeing currently. That’s where we come in. In the four years since The Main Line Chamber of Commerce created its Talent and Education Network, and during two years of study prior to the 2015 launch, we have learned a lot about what employers want and don’t want from their recent college graduates. To learn more about the program check out the newsletter in its entirety. 

For the first time in the history of our Gold Leaf Celebration and 2018 Helena Devereux Women in Leadership Award on September 27 at the Philadelphia Country Club, we will be honoring TWO women who have expressed exemplary leadership in our community. The Main Line Chamber of Commerce is excited to showcase not only our best this fall and upcoming winter season, but the excellence that is happening among our members. Check out this month's newsletter to see what's going on in the community.

Enabling members to succeed is what we pride ourselves on. We attribute our success to the incredible work our members do and because of that we are rolling out a "Members First" initiative this fall encouraging our members to work with each other and share their success stories. Stay tuned for more details. Check out the August edition of the monthly newsletter for member to member inspiration.
