elcome to 550-201 Portage Ave.,
the new home of the Manitoba
Chambers of Commerce. After
20 years occupying a storefront
one block west, the MCC now overlooks the
iconic corner of Portage and Main.
This move is part of the MCC's modernization
strategy — efforts that President and CEO
Chuck Davidson says will enable technology,
infrastructure, and process enhancements,
including the accommodation of several
important developments.
"With the recent announcement that the
MCC will administer the Manitoba Mineral
Development Fund (MMDF), we will need
to bring on board additional staff, and
we just didn't have the physical space
in our previous location. Now we do,"
Davidson says.
"Plus, as a member-driven organization,
we have a responsibility to champion
progress and welcome enhancements to the
benefit of our members. We are proud to
be modernizing."
The new space gives the MCC excellent
amenities, a great location, collaborative
workspace, and access to a premium board
room on the concourse level.
"On behalf of all MCC staff, thank you
to 201 Portage and all tenants here who
have stopped by to give us such a warm
welcome. We've truly made ourselves at
home here." ■
