“My positive impression of the Chamber actually played a huge role in my choosing Durham when relocating HuthPhoto.
Even before joining, I was given so much personal attention and business advice—and now as a member, I’ve received wonderful exposure to the Durham business community. Durham is just this wonderful, creative place, and I’m thrilled to have the Chamber as my quick-start guide to the Bull City.”
