Transforming Cork

Representing You & Enhancing Your Environment

TRANSFORMING CORK

Cork Chamber is a leading influencer of national, regional and local policy. Our Board and 57 Chamber Partners lead our Thought Leaders Council, our Public Affairs Council meet to refine our focus, and our surveys and conversations with members colour and guide our daily workflow. We lobby to make Cork a better place for business, through robust proposals, careful positioning and the building of lasting relationships with key decision makers.

We are driven by the vision of a vibrant, resilient and sustainable city region with a thriving business community at its core. We are formally committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, which guide the entirety of our advocacy.
