About Us

The Northwest Native Chamber (NWNC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to working with all members of the community to transform the economic landscape for Native and Tribal people in the Northwest.

Founded in 1994 as the Oregon Native American Chamber, NWNC has grown into a leading force for Native business development and economic advocacy. We operate at the intersection of cultural empowerment and economic advancement—providing culturally rooted business support, technical assistance, and policy advocacy for Native entrepreneurs and enterprises.

Our purpose is to help reclaim and reimagine an economy rooted in Indigenous values, where all communities—especially those historically excluded—can thrive. By addressing the structural barriers that have long impacted our people, NWNC is helping to build systems that ensure everyone has the opportunity to flourish.
