The Pride Chamber
Why Join the Chamber?
Discover the vibrant community of The Pride Chamber, where inclusivity and diversity meet professional growth!
"Since joining last year, I've thoroughly enjoyed enriching encounters with fellow professionals, forging new friendships, touring our hosts' beautiful spaces, and encouraging my clients to also join our supportive and engaging Pride Chamber community.
So far, with over $2,000 in member discounts on FASTSIGNS products and services offered, the benefits of joining are clear to us.
Our commitment to the chamber is to be a reliable pillar for the business growth of all LGBTQ+ and ally members of our community offering reliable support whenever it's called upon, elevating them to new heights of success."

“Nearly two years ago The Small Marketing Agency joined The Pride Chamber of Commerce to show solidarity for our employees, friends, and family who are part of the LGBTQ+ community in Central Florida and around the world. Our membership began as a show of support to the people we love and care about, but since joining, we recognize being a member of this chamber is a responsibility. Business is business and people are people, but the Pride Chamber is about inclusion and ensuring voices are heard, doors are opened, and people… regardless of race, gender, orientation, creed, politics, religion, or anything else that makes us different…The Chamber ensures we are all welcome. I believe it is a personal, social, and professional responsibility to support that mission. Our peers are watching. Our neighbors are watching. Our children are watching. What we do today impacts tomorrow and I believe the Pride Chamber is a much needed positive influence to effect change in the community.
The Pride Chamber has been a tremendous resource for The Small Marketing Agency, as we have found many allies in the membership and developed meaningful business relationships, not to mention new client engagements. Our membership goes beyond value. We are part of something where businesses gets done, but in a vibrant, supportive, and highly engaged forum. Do I recommend membership in the Pride Chamber? Without question. If you are serious about connecting with business leaders searching for ways to make their businesses stronger and value being treated as an equal for what you bring to the table, The Pride Chamber is where that happens.”
— David Goldstone, Owner, The Small Marketing Firm
"The Pride Chamber has truly helped to raise Orlando Shakes’ visibility to the community at large. Not only are chamber members attending our performances with co-workers, friends, and family, but they are also hosting events in our venue too. I am contacted regularly to see how member businesses can work with Orlando Shakes on new opportunities, and it’s never a one-way request. It’s always, “How can we work together to elevate both of our businesses.” The Pride Chamber has become a staple of the annual business plan for my department because it consistently opens doors and delivers new clients to me just by attending their many events.
One of the best qualities of The Pride Chamber is that it has a welcoming energy to it that is unlike any other Chamber in Central Florida. Existing members are eager to speak to new or visiting guests about the benefits of joining the Pride Chamber in a friendly and encouraging manner. And the cost of membership is truly worth the “price of admission” in that The Pride Chamber regularly goes above and beyond in their services, many times providing additional benefits wherever possible.
As a leader at a non-profit in Central Florida I was very happy to see a Business Connect dedicated to their non-profit members where we all got a chance to table for free and gain additional exposure. You don’t see that happen very much in the world of business chambers."
