Supporting a Thriving Business Community
With 80% of our members being small business, we understand the value of resources to support your business growth. The Chamber is focused on providing our members access to connections and resources to drive business development.
Below you will find resources varying from organizations to government agencies to business publications and more that will help guide your business through start up, funding, taxes and government relations, new technology and social media and much more.
The Chamber’s Catalyst Center can accommodate a variety of meeting sizes and arrangements and is available for Chamber members to use.
The Data Center is a source for economic, demographic and workforce data on the Charleston region. It is a partner project with the Chamber, the Charleston Regional Development Alliance, Berkeley-Charleston-Dorchester Council of Governments and SC Works Trident.
CLIMB Fund is a not-for-profit Community Development lender whose mission is to ensure access to capital for small businesses and affordable housing developments that cannot secure traditional financing.
Based in Charleston and serving the entire state of South Carolina, CLIMB Fund has more than 40 years of history lending to entrepreneurs who have been turned away by for-profit banks. There are numerous iconic local businesses we’ve helped start and grow, but the most important impacts we have are providing new pathways to success and helping people realize their dreams.
