Growing Stronger Together

A Message from Robert Heidt, President & CEO

Dear Metro Chamber Members,

As we move through 2026, one thing is clear: the strength of the Sacramento Metro Chamber is a direct reflection of the businesses, leaders, and partners who invest in our shared success. Your engagement is helping build an even stronger organization, one that is well positioned to advocate for business, foster meaningful connections, and create opportunities that strengthen the Capital Region.

Over the past year, we have made intentional investments in the people, programs, and resources that enhance the value of Chamber membership. By expanding our team and investing in professional development, we have increased our capacity to provide responsive member service, deliver impactful programming, and advance policies that support a thriving regional economy. We are also enhancing our office and meeting spaces to create more opportunities for collaboration, learning, and engagement among our members. If you haven't visited the office in a while, stop by - - we'd love to welcome you.

Today, more than 2,300 businesses have chosen to be part of the Sacramento Metro Chamber. That growth is more than a milestone—it reflects a shared belief that our region is strongest when the business community comes together with a unified voice and a common purpose.

Preparing the next generation of leaders remains central to that mission. Through Leadership Sacramento and Metro EDGE, we continue to cultivate emerging leaders, strengthen professional networks, and create opportunities for individuals to play a greater role in shaping the future of our region. These programs are investments not only in individual leadership, but also in the long-term economic vitality of the Capital Region.

Everything we do is guided by a simple commitment: delivering meaningful value to our members while helping create an environment where businesses succeed and communities thrive.

Thank you for your continued partnership and confidence in the Metro Chamber. Together, we are building a more connected business community, a stronger regional economy, and a brighter future for the Capital Region.

We remain your Chamber, for business.

Thank you,

Robert W. Heidt, Jr.

President & CEO
