Quarterly Economic Survey (QES)
As the regions largest and most influential business membership organisation, understanding the experience of business in the Thames Valley is vital.
Every quarter, our business survey gathers invaluable insights into the views of the Thames Valley business community, with results feeding directly into the British Chambers of Commerce Quarterly Economic Survey (QES).
We are the only organisation in the region to produce a comprehensive quarterly report which reflects the views of business. Together with representatives on a regional and national scale, this report is presented back to the business community.
Local Policy and Strategic Policy Priorities
The Chambers Policy team campaigns regionally and nationally on behalf of businesses of all sizes, lobbying, making representation and exerting powerful influence on government with the aim of creating a more favourable business environment.
The Thames Valley Assembly (TVA) is a Chamber initiative to help bring a step change in representing the voice of business across the Thames Valley and help future proof the competitive edge of our business community at a time of significant political and technological change.
British Chamber of Commerce Expert Panels
These Expert Panels guide the formulation of BCC policy, in relation to their areas of expertise and inform representation into Government, key policy decision makers and industry organisations. They ensure that the BCC has the specialist input required to represent the interests of Accredited Chambers of Commerce and their member companies authentically.
Panel members provide expert knowledge in their field and have a good understanding of the impact of policy in their Chamber’s region. Lead and Business Alliance members can be nominated to the panel by TVCC and are appointed to the BCC.
