What We Do
South Shore 2030 is a comprehensive, multi-year blueprint to promote economic growth, job creation, and stronger communities on the South Shore of Massachusetts. We aim to diversify the regional economy, compete for sought-after jobs and talent, and raise the quality of life for all residents.

Our accomplishments since 2016 include launching a: housing plan, collaborating with municipalities, working on mass transit issues, and convening groups to address development concerns.
Who We Are
South Shore 2030 is guided by the South Shore Economic Development Corporation (SSEDC), a not-for-profit subsidiary of the South Shore Chamber of Commerce. As the leading voice for our region's businesses, the South Shore Chamber facilitates collaborations between businesses, government, and non-profits to strengthen our communities and economy.

Other contributors include our: funders, local municipalities, and local officials committed to implementing the South shore 2030 roadmap.

The ultimate success of our work will hinge on our region's ability to cooperate and collaborate.
The South Shore Chamber helps represent the business community and non-profits in a way that works to ensure all different types of businesses, industries, workplaces, and community organizations are seen as a necessary and important part of the region for the people who live and work here on the South Shore. As a non-profit organization, the Chamber has been especially helpful working with state and local legislators to advocate on our behalf and help navigate laws that may impact non-profits and the work we do for the community.
