Policy and
Workforce Summit

Renaissance Walnut Creek Hotel

Why Should You Attend?

The Annual Policy & Workforce Summit convenes CA local chamber leaders to strengthen the collective voice of business through public policy alignment, grassroots advocacy activation, and innovative workforce development.

Through this high-impact gathering, the summit aims to:

  • Elevate statewide policy alignment by deepening understanding of legislation and regulations impacting the business community.
  • Build chamber advocacy capacity by equipping leaders with tools, tactics, and strategies to influence local and state decision-making.
  • Showcase workforce innovation by spotlighting chamber-led initiatives that align education and training with employer demand, including models inspired by the U.S. Chamber’s Talent Pipeline Management® framework.
  • Foster collaboration across regions and share best practices.
  • Empower chambers as civic leaders by reinforcing their role as trusted conveners and catalysts for pro-business change in their communities.

Together, we are building a connected network of chamber leaders who champion opportunity, drive policy change, and shape a more competitive and inclusive economy for all Californians.

“This summit is an opportunity to collaborate across regions, learn from peers, and reinforce the essential role chambers play as trusted civic leaders and champions for business. When we come together, our collective voice is stronger—and our impact is greater.

I hope you’ll join us as we work together to advance pro-business policies and shape a more competitive and inclusive economy for all Californians.”
