Frequently Asked Questions
A chamber of commerce is a non-profit organization that brings together the businesses and business people of a given area. Its role is to defend their interests, foster networking and contribute to the region’s economic development. The CCSIUM is funded entirely by its members’ dues.
The CCSIUM offers its members, among other things:
- representation of their interests to political and public authorities;
- business events and networking activities;
- training, for example on hiring foreign workers;
