Overview
The Lower Gwynedd Business Association (LGBA) was formed in 2012 with the mission to spread awareness to local residents about the diversity of businesses serving the township. The association was committed to the growth and success of the business community and in collaboration with the township strived to create a thriving and attractive destination for potential new businesses. The group was under the leadership of a volunteer board, which organized monthly meetings to discuss opportunities to unite local businesses to strengthen the vibrant and growing community.
In 2014, the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Montgomery County and the LGBA signed a chapter agreement whereby the two organizations would host joint networking and educational programs. In addition, the Chamber offered LGBA businesses a broader audience for networking and promotional opportunities.
In December, 2022 the LGBA Board agreed to transfer the assets of the organization to the Chamber. With over 100 years in serving the local business community with programs, events and advocacy initiatives, the Chamber is uniquely positioned to facilitate a climate for networking and business development as well as to provide resources and support to help Lower Gwynedd businesses grow.
