Benefits of Partnering With the California Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce

Becoming a Corporate Partner with the California Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce isn't just about the financial support your partnership provides… it's about the relationship. Partnering with the California Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce brings you side-by-side with us as we continually make outreach and partner with local business organizations wishing to make greater outreach to the LGBT Community, as well as with national organizations wishing to increase their opportunities and reach within the LGBT business community throughout the state of California. Some of the key benefits include:

LGBT Corporate Events and National Exposure - The California Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce will be very active in most key LGBT corporate business-oriented events this year in California. Teaming up at these and other events with our national NGLCC (National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce) as well as our Western Regional LGBT Chamber organization (Pacific CCBO LGBT chamber group) allows your company even greater exposure with the LGBT community at large.

Business Community Partners - We are increasing our community partners in a big way this year, working closer with local LGBT Chambers of Commerce, Out & Equal's various California Regional Affiliates and other local, mainstream chambers of commerce, tourism offices and LGBT organizations making increased outreach to the California LGBT business community.

Mixers and Networking Events - We are increasing our community outreach by hosting joint California Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce events with various local LGBT organizations here in California, including the LGLA (legal), FSIX (finance), IGLTA (travel) and others. We are also putting on additional networking mixers and educational events in select key regions of California including Orange and Riverside counties, the San Joaquin Valley, the Central Coast and the Sonoma Wine Country, just to name a few.

Online Exposure - we have streamlined our newsletter distribution, and our website continues to develop with new features added monthly… all with you, our corporate partner, in mind. Our design goals always focus on news and content first, with our corporate partner logos and business information interweaved throughout this content for maximum visibility, including prominent front page placement on our website, our e-mail newsletter and our social network marketing efforts on Facebook, Twitter and more.
