History
of the Dubuque Chamber Ambassadors
he
Dubuque Area Chamber Ambassadors organized in 1963 as an extension
of the Dubuque Industrial Bureau. The Ambassadors had two
major functions: to attract business from other cities to
come to Dubuque; and to assist Dubuque businesses to promote
their products and encourage expansion-thus increasing employment.
In
1975, the Dubuque Industrial Bureau merged with the Dubuque
Industrial Development Corporation. The Corporation joined
with the Dubuque Area Chamber of Commerce in 1978. The Chamber
added a full-time staff working in the area of economic development
and consequently, the goals and objectives of the Ambassadors
have changed over the years.
Today,
the Chamber Ambassadors' objective is to assist the Dubuque
Area Chamber of Commerce and the City of Dubuque in business
recognition and public relations. Objectives are completed
by ribbon cuttings, ground breaking ceremonies, grand openings
and certificate presentations.
The
Chamber Ambassadors are dedicated to the economic growth and
development of the Tri-State area. This group of 40 high spirited
people has made a commitment to recognizing businesses for
their accomplishments and contributions to the Tri-State area
community.
