Convenience and access. That's why consumers are attracted to shopping centers with multiple offerings. And that's why the Chamber joined with other organizations to formally establish the Knoxville Area Chamber Partnership in 1998.

The Knoxville Area Chamber Partnership is the umbrella affiliation of seven independent, business-service organizations. The participating organizations all are focused on helping businesses in the Knoxville area grow, succeed, and provide more jobs and an ever-increasing standard of living. The Partnership can also be thought of as the building on Market Square where all these organizations are housed, and therefore as the “one-stop shop” for business. The Knoxville Chamber is one of the partner organizations.

For over a decade, the Knoxville Area Chamber Partnership (KACP)
has offered multiple business options similar to the accessibility consumers find at large retail “super” centers.

“The Knoxville Chamber is highly invested in the success of businesses in our region,” says Mike Edwards, Chamber president and CEO. “We believe our relationships with the other organizations in the Partnership offer our members access to even more resources they can use to succeed.”

In addition to the Chamber, the organizations in the Partnership are the Central Business Improvement District, The Development Corporation of Knox County, the East Tennessee Television and Film Commission, the Tennessee Small Business Development Center, the Knoxville office of the U.S. Export Assistance Center, and the Hispanic Chamber of East Tennessee. All these organizations share space with the Chamber, and Chamber members have unlimited access to the information and the resources each partner organization provides.

Let’s take a closer look at these organizations – what they do and how you as a Chamber member can benefit from their services.
