New Chamber members receive all of the benefits of membership including networking and business development opportunities, the ability to join any of our drop-in committees, listing in the Chamber’s online business directory, access to educational programming, community engagement opportunities, and to benefit from the nonstop advocacy work of the Chamber.
"Arlington and the Chamber are at our best when our membership reflects the full diversity of all who work, live, and do business in Arlington,” said Kate Bates, President & CEO of the Arlington Chamber. “Amazon’s support provides an opportunity for the Chamber to make a tangible, targeted effort to ensure that there is a seat at the table for everyone in our local business community."
“Amazon is proud to partner with the Arlington Chamber of Commerce on the Small Business Accelerator Program,” said Patrick Phillippi, Senior Manager of Community Engagement at Amazon. “We are committed to helping small businesses thrive and grow in Northern Virginia, and we look forward to expanding access to the Chamber’s many benefits to small businesses that represent the diversity of this region.”
For prospective members that qualify for the Small Business Accelerator Program, Amazon will pay half of their membership dues for their first year, and they will be responsible for payment of the other half. Members who join through this program will be responsible for the full cost of renewing the membership in subsequent years.
Prospective members that qualify for this rate can contact Senior Director of Membership, Mike Rosenow, at membership@arlingtonchamber.org or (703) 525-2400 ext. 202 with any questions. Limited funds are available on a first-come-first-serve basis
