HistoryReaching back more than 140 years, the history of the Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce dates back to 1869, with the formation of the Madison Business Board. In 1971, after several name changes and mergers with other business associations, the name was changed to the Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce (GMCC) in an effort to encompass the entire Madison metropolitan area. This expansion of service was to ensure the economic stability and prosperity of the metropolitan area and to develop our potential for future growth. |
