Matt Bell, Executive Director

We are leaders of businesses, large and small, who understand that our best opportunity to shape policy is by uniting behind a common message that we can deliver powerfully to elected officials across our regions, state, and nation.

We are not content to stand idly by as per capita income and employment opportunities decrease across our Northeast Indiana community.

We are committed to the belief that Northeast Indiana’s best days lie ahead and not behind us.

We are united by our commitment to this community.

We are the Regional Chamber of Northeast Indiana.

Sincerely,

Matt Bell
