Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce joins partnership to benefit Sheepshead Bay
New Alliance Brings Together Business, Education and Government
The new year brings a new partnership between the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce (BCC), the student body at CUNY Kingsborough Community College and the Sheepshead Bay Merchants’ Association that demonstrates how business, government and education can work together to benefit the neighborhood.
The Sheepshead Bay Merchants’ Association began as an initiative of Assemblymember Steven Cymbrowitz (D-Brooklyn) and BCC to help revitalize the coastal business community following the economic devastation of Superstorm Sandy.
The new initiative was proposed by Cymbrowitz to enable local businesses to make use of Kingsborough’s many resources while reinforcing economic development in the area.
