Columbus Chamber of Commerce

http://www.columbus.org/   150 South Front Street, Suite 200, Columbus, OH  43215.  Phone: 614-221-1321;  Fax: 614-221-1408.  The Chamber's web-site testimony about economic development says little about small business.  Nevertheless, the Chamber offers lots of demographic information and economic development experience that could be valuable to a micro-enterprise if that experience can be marshaled.  The Chamber does operate the "Diversity Bridge" (http://www.diversitybridge.com/), which is a "one-stop" connector to minority-owned businesses in the Columbus area.  Partly funded by Honda of America, Diversity Bridge leverages resources, minimizes duplication of effort, and connects minority businesses with opportunities, resources, and peers.
