The Apex Chamber of Commerce is a voluntary, non-profit association made up of business people, professionals, churches, civic groups, and individuals working together to improve the quality of life and economic vitality of the Apex area. It is financed by its members, making fair-share investments and fundraising activities. It is not dependent on tax dollars, and it is not an arm of any level of government.

The Apex Chamber of Commerce is governed by a 15-member Board of Directors elected by the membership, who in turn hire a President to execute the programs and policies adopted by the Board.

How do I get involved with the Chamber?
As a member, you have the opportunity to serve on various committees at the Apex Chamber. We also have a Board of Directors that govern how we operate, and an Ambassador Club. We're always in search of good people and helpful volunteers to help us carry out all of the many programs at the Apex Chamber.

What are your fees for membership?
Our membership fees are based on the type of business and number of employees each  business has.  The goal of the Chamber is to keep member fees as low as possible, while still offering quality programs and service. Click here to take a look at our Investment Schedule.
