What MCCC Members are Saying |
 "MCCC provides tremendous value to our company. If you want to do business with the federal government, a state agency or any individual, country, or continent, they have programs on all of this. MCCC is very active in promoting business interests at the local, state and federal level through their strong connections and excellent reputation with our elected officials. This is a venue where you can work to further influence and engage with the community and with decision makers to improve our business climate. We have a network of partner companies and the B2B information and support from the Chamber is very helpful. One of the most important things in growing our company has been hiring the right people and Montgomery College, USG, MCPS - who are all also involved in the Chamber - are huge resources for educating and training our workforce."
