The New Orleans Chamber of Commerce welcomes twenty members to the 2013-2014 Ambassadors Committee. The purpose of the Ambassadors Committee is to market membership within the Chamber to current and future members.

Each Ambassador is carefully selected by invitation only to focus public relations efforts on membership retention and to learn how we can continue to provide support in a professional manner to all Chamber business members we serve.

Current members can expect a courtesy phone call throughout the year from the Ambassadors to discuss Chamber activities and to give a status update on their business. Special thanks to Jennifer Keating Magee for leading the Ambassador Committee as the 2012 Ambassador Chair and a warm welcome to Roderic Teamer as the 2013 Ambassador Chair.
