Gateway Initiative

The Gateway Initiative is a rapidly evolving workforce development leader in Baldwin County, and is cutting edge, while still holding true to the core value of “business-driven programming”. The initiative kicked-off in January 2018 as the "Gateway Initiative, One Voice, One Vision, Moving South Baldwin Forward" and is a unique collaboration between the Coastal Alabama business Chamber of Commerce and the South Baldwin Chamber of Commerce. This initiative is recognized and highly respected within the State of Alabama, having a foundation based on collaboration within the business community. Three programs of work were initiated, each with a specific mission, detailed objectives, and projected outcomes, all guided by some of the top business minds of the region. These programs include pro-business advocacy, workforce development, and community betterment.
