3 Big Picture Goals
The Livonia-Westland Chamber of Commerce has worked hard in recent years to further our work on these three big picture goals that will benefit our entire business community.
- Leading Regional Collaboration
- Building Today's and Tomorrow's Workforce
- Advancing Meaningful Connections
Leading Regional Collaboration
- Expand the network of partnerships along the growing I-275 Corridor to advance business solutions
- Livonia-Westland Chamber has led in this area by building partnerships with neighboring chambers, municipalities and school districts with the development of the Western Wayne Business Leadership Banquet and other original regional programming over the years.
- The Chamber has regularly attended the Mackinac Policy Conference to expand the network and opportunities for our communities and Western Wayne County. Starting in 2022, the Livonia-Westland Chamber joined with Connect Macomb to host an annual networking event during the Conference to facilitate more regional connections.
Building Today's and Tomorrow's Workforce
- Support local business demand for technical, skilled and medical workforce
- Since 2011, the Livonia-Westland Chamber has been a leader in bringing more attention to the high-demand and great opportunities of careers in the professional trades through the former I-275 Industrial Council, speaking engagements, original student programs such as 2023-2025's Touch A Job.
- On March 20, 2024 our President/CEO Dan West was interviewed by WWJ Newsradio 950's Mike Campbell to promote 2024 Touch A Job and take a look at future workforce needs.
Advancing Meaningful Connections
- The Chamber has developed thought-provoking programs each year to inspire local businesses and community groups to work together on big picture issues affecting our region.
