About the author
Founded in 1859, the Metro Atlanta Chamber is the chamber of commerce for the Atlanta metropolitan area. Historical summaries note that its earliest form focused on railroad rates and trade, and that it later evolved alongside Atlanta’s growth into a major regional business center.
Over time, the organization became known for business advocacy, regional marketing, and efforts to attract companies and investment to metro Atlanta. Its work has typically centered on promoting economic development and supporting a competitive business climate across the broader region.
Because this is an organization rather than an individual author, there is no suitable personal portrait to use here.
