Strategic Plan
Our Chamber's mission is to promote and foster business growth and success for our members and the Midland community. We work to achieve this mission through:
1) Being an Influential Chamber (four-star accredited by the US Chamber of Commerce), cultivating diversity within our membership base and leadership, and maintaining a professional staff
2) Providing Strategic Business Support to our Chamber members through an array of cash flow, networking, and promotional benefits
3) Advocating for a business-friendly climate at all levels of government
4) Promoting Midland as the place for work, tourism, and conventions
5) Encouraging Quality Growth and Development of our community in order to attract and retain the best workforce
In the spring of 2020, our Board approved an updated strategic plan to guide the organization until 2023.
The five components of this plan work in concert toward our mission to promote and foster business growth and success for Chamber members and the community.
