A chamber of commerce is a membership-based nonprofit that brings businesses and professionals together to strengthen the local economy and community. Every local chamber should reflect the town or city they serve.

We advocate for business interests, provide visibility and networking opportunities, and connect members with resources that help them succeed. While individual businesses may not always have the influence or capacity to solve challenges on their own, the Chamber unites members’ voices and resources to accomplish more together.

The West Hollywood Chamber of Commerce (WHCC) also serves as a vital link between businesses, government, and the community—ensuring that local commerce remains vibrant, resilient, and inclusive.

WHCC is a California 501(c)(6) non-profit corporation composed of volunteers/members and paid staff. Our membership nominates and elects the Board of Directors. The board’s Officers are elected by the Board and serve as its Executive Committee. The President & CEO is hired by the Board, is the paid chief executive of the organization, and is managed by the Executive Committee. Their responsibilities are to operate within the framework of budgets established, programs adopted, and policies developed by the members of the Board of Directors; additionally, the President & CEO of WHCC hires and manages additional paid staff as required. Committee Chairs are appointed by the Board; committees are mandated by and responsible to the Board.

Chambers are governed by its bylaws, which set forth the responsibilities of the Officers (Executive Committee), Board of Directors, and the President & CEO.

Anyone can join the West Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. They do not have to be in the City of West Hollywood. Additionally, they can be an individual joining independently of their employer, an employee who wishes to join separately from their corporation, or a company—wherein its employees are considered ex officio members through the company’s membership.

The West Hollywood Chamber of Commerce is an independent, local membership-based organization whose values reflect the city and its business community. Other chambers reflect the values of their cities and members. While we partner with regional and statewide associations, your membership is specific to WHCC.

The City of West Hollywood was officially incorporated on November 29, 1984, and it has its own unique identity and character that sets it apart from Los Angeles.

WHCC partners with the City of West Hollywood Economic and Business Development departments and other agencies to provide resources on business licensing, relocation, and economic trends. Visit the city’s Business Development page for details.
