As the Voice of Business, the BVI Chamber of Commerce takes serious the responsibility to lobby on your behalf to the policy-makers on what is needed for an environment that empowers and support business owners. Small businesses are the building blocks of the economy and in order to grow and drive economic growth, effective policy and legislation, low business costs and efficient procedures are some of the factors needed for businesses to thrive. Businesses are also individual livelihoods for some and help improve people's quality of life. The Chamber is in the process of developing a short-term business advocacy agenda and would like to hear from businesses on the issues and concerns that matter to you the most.
