Tuscaloosa’s Jim Page appointed to international association for chamber executives

Jim Page, president and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama in Tuscaloosa, has been appointed to serve on the board of directors for the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE).

Based in Alexandria, Virginia, this association represents more than 9,000 professionals across 1,300 chambers of commerce throughout North America.

Page has led the Chamber of Commerce of West Alabama since 2012 and has worked in the industry since 2002. A former chairman of the Chamber of Commerce Association of Alabama, Page currently sits on the board of directors of the Business Council of Alabama (BCA), which effectively serves as the statewide chamber of commerce.

“We are pleased to welcome Jim to the ACCE Board of Directors,” stated Sheree Anne Kelly, president and CEO of ACCE. “He joins the organization’s volunteer leadership at a time when the role of chambers of commerce has never been more critical. In these unprecedented times, Jim’s expertise will help our volunteer leadership address today’s most pressing challenges, reimagine chambers and shape the future of our work.”

The mission of ACCE is to support and develop chamber professionals to lead businesses and their communities. ACCE identifies and analyzes trends affecting communities, shares best practices and develops benchmarking studies, in addition to providing other tools to help chamber leaders manage and improve operations at their organization.
