OUT Georgia Business Alliance

Georgia's 2SLGBTQIA+ and Allied Chamber of Commerce

Established in 1994, OUT Georgia (formerly the Atlanta Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce) is the voice of Georgia’s 2SLGBTQIA+ business community, proudly representing small business, nonprofit, corporate, and professional Members who are committed to economic equity, accessibility, and inclusive prosperity.

What We Do

Advocacy

OUT Georgia stands at the intersection of pro-business, pro-2SLGBTQIA+, and pro-civil rights policy and legislation that we believe is good for business, good for the community, and good for ALL Georgians.

Through the lens of equity and justice, we advocate for small business and entrepreneurs, represent the voice of our Membership at the local and state level, and advance civil rights and inclusion through business.

Business

OUT Georgia connects Members to business and professional development resources to fuel growth, economic impact, and prosperity.

We provide accessible programming and training, connect LGBTQ+ Certified Business Enterprises (LGBTBEs) to corporate and government contracting, and promote progressive business policies and best practices.

Community

OUT Georgia builds a network of leaders and organizations to elevate peer-support and brand visibility, spotlight inspiring work, and drive meaningful impact across the State of Georgia.

In partnership with United Way of Greater Atlanta, we launched the OUT Georgia Impact Fund and invested $100,000 in small, grassroots nonprofits that serve 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals and communities that need it most.
