Our mission

How we advance LGBTQIA+ business.

As a chamber of commerce, 3RBA works to promote, expand, and improve the economic interests of LGBTQIA+-owned businesses across the Pittsburgh / Greater Allegheny region — through four core commitments.

01 · ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Economic Development

We help members grow — raising brand visibility, sharpening skills as owners and managers, and building relationships with new clients. That includes guiding members through LGBT Business Enterprise® (LGBTBE®) certification with the NGLCC, opening doors to leading corporations and new contracting opportunities.

02 · STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS

Strategic Partnerships

We connect members with clients, knowledgeable peers, and community partners through meetings, mixers, tours, forums, and workshops — plus marketing and sponsorship opportunities, collaborations with fellow chambers, and an online member business directory.

03 · EDUCATION

Education

We share best practices and insight on the issues that matter most to LGBTQIA+ businesses — through our events and workshops, and via online training, resources, and other educational opportunities.

04 · ADVOCACY

Advocacy

We lead and advocate for diversity, inclusion, and business-friendly public policy — addressing civil rights and the shared economic interests of LGBTQIA+ businesses at the local, state, and federal levels.
