Established in 1965, the Chamber of Commerce is the largest not-for-profit organisation operating in Cayman with a membership of more than 700 businesses, associations and individuals collectively employing more than 18,000 people. The Chamber of Commerce is funded primarily from annual membership subscriptions, training and workforce development programs, trade missions and marketing and promotional events and materials.
