Our Structure & Governance

The Chambers across PEI have a joint letter of intent and finalizing Memorandum of Understanding so our purpose is clear. We have a working group from Chamber leadership and Boards of Directors as well as experienced and new business leaders. We report annually to the members and Chambers Boards across the Island. To join BEC you are required to also hold a membership in any other Chamber across PEI.

BEC offers different levels of memberships to accommodate various types and sizes of businesses. Membership is open to PEI business companies who also hold a current membership in at least one other PEI Chamber. The membership costs are structured to ensure that businesses of all sizes can participate and benefit from the council's initiatives. The structure will be outlined in December 2025.

WE ARE LOCAL.
