The Southwest California Chamber of Commerce, is a Regional Chamber developed primarily to advance the general welfare and prosperity of the region. Our executive board is dedicated to fostering business growth through education and encouraging the entrepreneurial spirit.

The regional Chamber does not have permanent offices or paid staff therefore we enjoy a low cost of operations. Services are voluntarily provided by members and the board of directors. There is no pressure for fundraising events. Membership dues go a long way to fund service to the membership.

In addition to on-line services, business expos and networking opportunities, our Board seeks useful promotional items that will jointly benefit the Chamber's exposure as well as provide a tangible good for our members and their clients. Complimentary name badges, promotional items recommended by members, and sponsorship by The Community Bugle newspaper for regional exposure are a few of the benefits in progress. The Bugle also sponsors Business Spotlight articles on a space available basis and offers discounts to new members for advertising in The Bugle.

When was the Regional Chamber formed?

The formal name was filed in Riverside County in March 2004 in conjunction with the new branding image for Southwest Riverside County, California. The government agencies of Temecula, Murrieta, Lake Elsinore and the County of Riverside pooled resources to brand the region Southwest California. In March 2005 the Executive Committee began a low key Membership drive. Growth in the introductory phase is focused on membership of early adopters with an entrepreneurial spirit.View our bylaws and consider becoming a Charter Member.
