BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. - Floridant -- The Boynton Beach Online Chamber of Commerce (BBOC) has evolved to become the Boynton Beach Chamber of Industry and Commerce (BBCIC).

The new entity will operate as a traditional Chamber of Commerce and expand the scope of the Chamber's activities to support and engage all businesses and industries. It will be an organization designed to promote and protect the interests of its members and contribute to the overall economic vitality of the community. It will act as a central point for networking, advocacy, and community engagement for business and industry.

Chambers of Commerce are essential catalysts for economic growth and development within communities. As non-profit organizations, they are committed to fostering a vibrant and prosperous business climate. The new Chamber will be doing business as a 501(c) (6) nonprofit organization.

According to Rick Maharajh P.E., President/CEO and Founder of the BBOC and BBCIC, "We are very excited to announce the evolution of the BBOC to the BBCIC. We feel strongly that including industries like agriculture and fishing is just the beginning, striving to become a more comprehensive networking platform serving our members (including two in different countries), the City of Boynton Beach, and beyond."
