The West Baton Rouge Chamber of Commerce uses its strategic plan as a guide to create a robust business environment, promoting smart growth and development that attracts businesses and investors.
“By narrowing our focus, reinforcing our position, and being more selective about the type of work we take on, we are able to work with more people,” says Executive Director Anna Johnson.

As investors and companies seek clarity for long-term opportunities, many industry partners and members of the Chamber are embracing an energy transition—a transformation from fossil-based systems of energy production to renewable energy sources and sustainability.
“Companies are looking to reduce emissions through various forms of decarbonization, and West Baton Rouge is welcoming these changes and projects with open arms,” Johnson says. “Companies are demanding that their products are carbon neutral. We must find a new way to stay competitive.”
