Program areas at Big Sky Chamber of Commerce

The Big Sky Chamber's primary strategic focus is advocating for our 500 members in and around Big Sky, Montana. As a Chamber of Commerce, we actively support the local business economy and community through various initiatives, including business engagement, trainings, events, and member benefits. Our key priorities include the development of a leadership program for the community and addressing workforce sustainability.
Our annual meeting provides an opportunity to reflect on the year ahead, recognize member businesses and professionals for their achievements, and elect new board members and officers. This event allows business owners to network, exchange strategies, and gain fresh ideas to help their Big Sky businesses thrive.
Another important pillar of the Big Sky Chamber is facilitating local governance and public affairs. We host a bi-annual "Eggs and Issues" meeting to discuss critical community concerns, bringing together representatives from the two local county governments involved. The Coordinating Council of Big Sky gathers key community leaders to ensure collective efforts toward implementing the community's strategic plan. Additionally, we have established the Business of Big Sky Forum to address thechallenges of growth and keep residents informed about these developments.
