DTChamber

Established in 2008, the Downtown Chamber set out to change the way people think about chambers. Instead of greeting you with their business cards, you get a handshake and smile from our members. And, you won’t find the standard luncheons, coffees, or business after hours. By adhering to the tenets of knowledge sharing, civility, and economic understanding, members are invited to an eclectic series of events and programs.

Our Mission: The Des Moines Downtown Chamber of Commerce promotes the success and sustained growth of Downtown Des Moines by proactively providing information and resources, facilitating knowledge-sharing and elevating understanding of economic issues.
The Downtown Chamber stands in solidarity with the Black community in the fight against systemic racism and injustice---we hear you, and we support you. Our community is engaged and we are encouraged by the dialogue and voices uniting against racism, making it unequivocally clear that Black Lives Matter.

We say this while acknowledging we have a lot of work to do, as an organization and as a community. We cannot stop when protests lessen, and we must not question our role now or in the coming years for eliminating injustice, oppression and inequality. A chamber of commerce is a convener of community leaders and trusted voices across the country, and they can bring disparate perspectives to the table for meaningful local conversations and, more importantly, critical actions.

The Downtown Chamber is committed to first listen and understand, and to move forward boldly to build a path to a better future together with our members and stakeholders. We will strive to be an example and demonstrate ways our diverse business community can stand intentionally against the systemic racism and oppression experienced every day in America.
