The Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce (NVC) is a membership based business network located in Fairfax County, Virginia. It represents 650+ businesses and 500,000 employees, making it the largest regional chamber of commerce in Virginia.[1]

The chamber provides the Northern Virginia business community with access to opportunities represented by the Chamber’s four foundational pillars: business development, thought leadership, strategic advocacy, and community partnerships.

In January 2016, the organization restructured itself from the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce to the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce.[2][3] In August 2018, the Chamber announced that Better Business Bureau Chief Operating Officer, Julie Coons, would be the organization's new President and CEO following a nation-wide search.[4]

In June 2023, Deborah "Deb" Gandy became the first Black woman to be inducted as chair of the chamber, after succeeding Matt McQueen.[5]
