Advocacy for Business
The role of government, among other things, is to ensure that an environment
of stability is created to allow business enterprises to grow and succeed.
The central benefit of chamber membership is the voice that your membership
dues buy, a voice that is dedicated to overcoming any impediments to the
conduct of commerce in the Commonwealth and ensuring that a framework of
commercial stability is maintained. Without a Chamber of Commerce as the
vigilant voice representing business, government can tend to overstep its
reach of commercial enforcement and regulation.
All of the work that the Saipan Chamber of Commerce does in effect supports our central goal. Our workshops and seminars provide information to businesses to help them improve the operations of their enterprises in a variety of areas from accounting to government relations. In addition to our central goal, the Chamber works on many activities to improve the community in which we live, by participating in environmental, educational and other community programs.
The Saipan Chamber of Commerce has worked aggressively this past year to pull together a comprehensive and attractive benefits package for our valued members. Many of our member companies have responded very well and our Chamber members can expect to see additional business benefits throughout the year.
Chamber Conference Room
For many of the smaller businesses and sole-proprietors among our membership
the Chamber has opened up its conference room use. Any members can avail themselves
of the conference room use and consider it their downtown office.
