Chamber Membership

JACKIE KRUTZ: “ADVANCING THE GREATER IN GREEN BAY.”

Greater Green Bay Chamber membership fuels growth, talent and impact.

Jackie Krutz moved to Green Bay surrounded by family, but she soon realized she needed more than personal connections. She needed a broader professional network. That’s when she turned to the Greater Green Bay Chamber to explore new opportunities.

“One of the hardest things is understanding what impact I have on this community,” she said. “The only way to do that is to meet other people and understand the needs of the community.”

Jackie credits the Chamber’s Community Concierge Program with helping her meet fellow professionals and build meaningful relationships. Through the program, she quickly formed new friendships with people both similar to and different from herself. Those connections have enriched her work as Director of Titletown Development for the Green Bay Packers.

“One of the things I absolutely love about my job at Titletown is the impact it has on the community both from a family perspective but also the new individuals moving to Green Bay because of the amenities, career opportunities and growth happening here today,” said Jackie. “Working together with the Chamber and making some impactful connections in the community has helped me in my career while growing the objectives and goals for Titletown in a larger way.”

Titletown is a 45-acre mixed-use development next to Lambeau Field created by the Packers to spark economic growth and support future development across the region.

“The Greater Green Bay Chamber and the Green Bay Packers are aligned in expanding both business and economic development in the region. We work together to develop initiatives that will support that growth,” said Jackie. “Titletown is an initiative of the Green Bay Packers that is rooted in especially economic development, and that is a shared goal of the Chamber.”

In addition to economic development, Jackie says Chamber membership also supports the Packers’ talent development goals. “One of the ways we’ve leveraged the Chamber is providing leadership opportunities that allows them to start networking and connecting with others outside of their comfort zone and job so that they can be the next generation of leaders in our organization.”

Chamber membership helps people like Jackie become stronger leaders, create wider networks and multiply their impact on the community.
