Supporting Our Region's Growing Businesses
Traverse Connect is the go-to place for business resources for companies of all sizes and sectors. We can connect you to any resources you need, such as financing, finding a new office location, or talent development resources for your staff.
Traverse Connect continues to provide the services previously offered by the Traverse City Area Chamber of Commerce for networking, strategy development, talent attraction, and advocacy. Traverse Connect embraces our lead role in regional economic development, and we also respond to the needs of our existing business community and use those findings to develop programming and services to address common needs of growing businesses.
