The Monroe County Business Alliance

Our History

For years, the Monroe County Business Development Corporation and the Monroe County Chamber of

Commerce engaged in periodic discussions about how the two organizations might collaborate more closely to enhance efficiency and long-term sustainability.

These conversations extended beyond administrative streamlining and cost savings, they also explored how a unified organization could serve as a central hub for all business development efforts in our community.

In late 2020, these discussions gained renewed momentum, and a dedicated working group was formed, comprising the Executive Committees of both organizations, along with key stakeholders from local businesses, the County of Monroe, and its Board of Commissioners. Through thoughtful dialogue, strategic planning, and a shared vision for Monroe County’s economic future, the concept for a new organization emerged.

The result was the formation of the Monroe County Business Alliance, which officially began operations on January 1, 2023, ushering in a new era of collaboration, innovation, and unified support for the local business community.

What We Do

The Monroe County Business Alliance brings together traditional chamber services and economic development under one organization to better serve our community and, most importantly, our member partners.

At the MCBA, our mission is to support the growth of existing businesses while attracting new investment to Monroe County and the surrounding region. We’re focused on fostering a business-friendly environment that encourages long-term success. 

Our partners benefit from access to a strong local network of business leaders, elected officials, and community influencers. Through referral-based networking groups and timely updates on business developments in the county, members are well-positioned to stay informed and connected.

We understand that businesses have choices when it comes to investing in networking and marketing. That’s why we’ve designed the MCBA to be an accessible and effective resource for local business growth.

We look forward to working with you and welcoming you to the Monroe County Business Alliance, where shared commitment leads to meaningful results.
