The Newton-Needham Regional Chamber started the new year by reaching the 800 member mark, positioning itself to become one of the ten largest chambers in the state. The chamber welcomed 265 new members since Jan 1, 2017 across all industries and professions plus many nonprofit organizations of all sizes.

The chamber’s merger with the Needham Business Association and the closing of the Watertown Belmont Chamber resulted in a large influx of businesses and professionals gravitating towards Newton-Needham’s growing membership, robust networking opportunities and regional economic development initiatives.
