Boulder County LGBTQ Chamber Of Commerce To Launch

BOULDER, CO — Boulder County is taking a significant step towards bolstering the county's LGBTQ businesspeople, as they launch the Boulder County LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce. The chamber is set to be the first chapter of the Colorado LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce.

The chapter is launching on Monday, May 20, when the chapter is inviting guests to a celebration with food and drinks and, of course, lots of networking in the LGBTQ-owned, and inclusive, businesses of the area.

The Colorado LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce was formerly the Denver Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. It's an equal opportunity chamber of commerce with the goal of supporting LGBTQ-owned and friendly businesses.
