The mission of the Houston West Chamber of Commerce is to be the choice for business and community by promoting economic growth and a superior quality of life in the West Houston communities.  The Chamber mission has four cornerstones:

1. Economic Opportunities – The Chamber enhances and leverages the talents and resources of its members to improve economic opportunities for all.
2. Advocacy – The Chamber is an advocate for its broad and diverse member businesses, creating a climate of growth and success that benefits all.
3. Impact – The Chamber provides unique opportunities for individuals and businesses to make a difference by connecting them to important community issues.
4. Focus – The Chamber helps build stronger communities by staying focused and involved in the top business, civic, and social priorities.

On a monthly basis, the HWCOC hosts a professional networking breakfast, one general membership luncheon, numerous special-interest committee meetings, one formal Chamber Orientation, and numerous ribbon cuttings and open houses – all open to the general public with Chamber members always receiving discounted pricing. The HWCOC also hosts occasional socials and seminars – depending on the time of year. Other yearly events primarily aimed at recognizing the work of their members, business, and the community, and/or fundraising are also sponsored by the HWCOC. Please visit the website for full calendar of events.

The Chamber’s most valuable assets are its members who donate their time, talent, and dollars to provide programs and services to attract and grow member businesses and to enhance the quality of life. Today, the Chamber represents approximately 560 active, paid business members representing more than 45,000 employees. Annual membership dues range from a modest $275 up to $10,000 for Leadership Circle Memberships. Represented in the Leadership Circle are Diamond Patrons, Platinum Partners, and Chairman’s Circle Members.

A Board of Directors governs the Houston West Chamber of Commerce and is responsible for all policy-making decisions. The five directors and three advisors of the Executive Committee exercise the power of the Board between meetings. Board members serve as liaisons to each of the various special-interest committees of the Chamber. Overseeing the day-to-day operations of the Houston West Chamber of Commerce is a small team of both full, part-time, and volunteer staff.
