Questions

Membership FAQ

Who can join the Chamber?

Anyone doing business in or with the greater Silicon Valley region: individuals, small business owners, start-ups, nonprofits, and large corporations. There is a membership type built for each.

What is the difference between Stakeholder and Community Partner membership?

Stakeholders are full members with access to everything the Chamber offers, including councils, referral groups, committees, and discounts, with options under $50/month for very small businesses and nonprofits. Community Partners make a larger financial commitment (tiers up to $50k/year) in exchange for deeper engagement, visibility, and special events.

How is membership billed?

Stakeholder membership can be billed month-to-month or annually. Community Partner tiers run per calendar year. Multiple payment methods are accepted.

Can I give a membership as a gift?

Yes. The Gift of Membership is available through the member store, a great way to support a business you believe in.

What happens after I apply?

You receive member portal access for your directory listing, event registration, and member-to-member deals, and an invitation to the next New Member Orientation, held monthly.

Does the Chamber take political positions?

Yes, on business-related issues at the local, county, and state level. Members help shape those positions through the member portal. Read about advocacy →
