The purpose of the Trustee program & Platinum Circle Partners is to engage senior executive business leaders in active participation with the Chamber by forming alliances with peers so they can lead our community in social and political interactions as well as be informed regarding issues that affect Northwest Broward. Members of these programs lend their concern and expertise to address issues concerning the community, politics, and business, to help ensure a solid future for local enterprises and our citizens. Together, we are insuring the continued growth and vitality of one another’s business and that of the Chamber for many years to come.
