Welcome, Kodiak Neighbors!

The Kodiak Chamber of Commerce is proud to partner with the Alaska Small Business Development Center (Alaska SBDC) to hear directly from you - our Kodiak small business owners and those aspiring to start a business in Kodiak. This short survey is your chance to tell us what kinds of business training and support would be most helpful to you. Your input will guide the design of three (3) free, customized workshops that will be offered locally and tailored to the real needs of our community. Whether you’re already running a business or dreaming of starting one, your voice matters - and we’d love to hear from you. Plus, Chamber members receive free access to all Alaska SBDC workshops, including the three (3) special Kodiak-focused workshops.
