What is a Chamber of Commerce?

A chamber of commerce is a group of businesses that supports the interests of its members. Each chamber of commerce will elect its own leadership and decide what agendas to pursue. A chamber does not create laws, but they may influence pro-business policies by lobbying legislators. The very first chamber of commerce was established in France in 1599. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce was later established in 1912. Today, chambers of commerce exist all over the world and are incredibly diverse organizations.
