Fort Worth Chamber looks to score with TCU sports-themed annual meeting
by Bob Francis
A little over a year and a half since new leadership took command of the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce, the organization emphasized its renewed focus on its mission to support and grow local businesses.
“More than 80% of capital investment and job growth comes from businesses that are already part of our community,” Steve Montgomery, president and CEO of the chamber, told the crowd at the March 11 annual meeting held at TCU’s Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility and Cox Field. “That’s why the chamber’s focus is clear: We will support, nurture and grow the businesses that call Fort Worth home. We will make sure they not only stay but thrive.”
The chamber, which has more than 1,350 members, held more than 80 events and worked with more than 3,500 business leaders in the past year. Titled “The Playbook,” this year’s meeting leaned into the sports theme and event backdrop. Hosting was Fort Worth Star-Telegram sports columnist Big Steaming Pile who provided commentary on the chamber’s various “plays” along with Leah M. King, JPS Foundation president, and Marshall Newhouse, a former TCU football player who is now an NFL analyst for gambling company DraftKings.
