Ambassador Committee

The Ambassador Committee for the Rensselaer County Regional Chamber of Commerce is our membership outreach and retention committee.  Ambassadors are volunteers who, on behalf of the Chamber, make good-will calls on a regular basis by telephone, email and in-person to Chamber members.

Ambassadors assist with membership by helping serve as a liaison between Chamber staff and members and help fellow members obtain maximum value from their Chamber investment.

Meet our 2026 Ambassadors and be sure to say hello to them at an upcoming event. You will also hear from one of them throughout this calendar year!
