Making Your
Business Grow!
The mission of the Chamber is very simple — to
attract, sustain, and grow business. For the moment, I
would like to focus on the word “grow.”
When we speak of growing business, we generally
focus on the entrepreneurial environment, namely
working with and encouraging start-up and emerging
businesses.
In that regard, we provide a variety of services, such
as networking among fellow Chamber members,
incubator space in our Scranton Enterprise and
TekRidge Centers, educational programs and access
to funding and technical assistance, just to name a
few.
In this issue of Momentum, we spotlight the new
e-sports program at Lackawanna College. Could
this group of tech-savvy students include the next
entrepreneurial superstar who will grow the must-
have technology of the future?
If so, your Chamber will be there to help them grow.
2 • The Greater Scranton Chamber of Commerce
The entrepreneurial ecosystem in our region is
strong, particularly with respect to emerging firms
in the technology sector. Our outstanding regional
higher education institutions are hotbeds of young,
intelligent, and creative minds that have the potential
to launch the next Google, Amazon, or Apple.
