Join us on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, at the Bertrand Innovation Center, 1905 Foundation Drive, Niles, MI 49120, for a press conference announcing the official partnership between the Greater Niles Chamber of Commerce (GNC) and the Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber (SMRC).
Doors open at 8:00 a.m., and remarks will begin at 8:30 a.m. Tours of the Bertrand Innovation Center will follow.
This event marks a historic collaboration—the first time in Berrien County history that two chambers of commerce have joined forces at this scale. The partnership represents a transformative step in how we advocate, collaborate, and support our regional business community, bridging the long-standing divide between North and South Berrien County. With nearly 1,000 combined members, the two Chambers will work together to create a stronger, more unified voice for local businesses in Lansing, Washington, and beyond.
Leaders from both Chambers, along with community and municipal officials, will deliver remarks. Coffee and light refreshments will be available.
