Dear Members,

I greatly appreciate the opportunity serve as your Chair of the Fishers Chamber of Commerce.  It is an honor to have the occasion to serve in a community of bright, enthusiastic and engaged people.  Despite the constant reminders of our challenging economic climate, the Chamber members with which I have come into contact exude confidence in their ability to harness the energy and talent that abound in Fishers.  Our members strongly believe that where others see adversity, we see promise.

The Fishers Chamber of Commerce is following the direction of its members and seizing this chance to improve and benefit from our diverse experience and skills, constantly forging new relationships.   We have proactively improved our structure to allow every member to cultivate their particular talents to enhance the entire business community.   This new structure also provides for increased participation in events, programs and gatherings, resulting in the greatest positive impact on our community, businesses, visitors, friends and families, without limitation.   Through our collaborations with local and state government, member business and community partners, we have positioned ourselves to become the voice of business of central Indiana in what is evolving into a global marketplace.

With recognition of our impact, it is also apparent throughout our history that we have transitioned to better serve the business community.  Today, we are once again transforming and adapting to the changing business environment.  We are strengthening our role as the voice of business in Fishers and the value of our membership.  Our commitment to all of you is to make things happen in Fishers and focus on building upon our strong foundation and pave the way for future generations of businesses and residents in Fishers.   The Fishers Chamber of Commerce continues to grow both in demographics and vision only as a result of the active participation of all of our members and the strong leadership demonstrated by our staff and volunteers.  I look forward to meeting and working with everyone as we rise up to meet the challenges that await us.

Sincerely,

William H. Lutz
