Connect · Convene · Communicate · Lead

Downtown Oakland is the heart, soul, and economic engine of our great city. It has long been the place where residents and visitors from all walks of life gather to work, live, play, and create. The area accounts for over 60 percent of Oakland’s workforce and is the largest contributor of tax dollars to the city, helping fund critical infrastructure and programs across the entire city.

In early 2023, the Oakland Metro Chamber of Commerce brought together a cross-sector group of Downtown Oakland stakeholders, including corporations, nonprofits, real estate owners, and local merchants, to foster collaboration and dialogue around public safety.
