BizFed (Los Angeles County Business Federation) began with a powerful vision—to create a unified voice for Southern California’s diverse business community. Founded in 2008 and based in Los Angeles County, BizFed is a collaborative alliance of over 200 chambers of commerce, trade associations, and minority business groups. Their mission is clear: to bring businesses together, amplify their voices, and advocate for policies that drive economic growth and innovation.
A Mission of Empowerment
At its core, BizFed exists to empower businesses by fostering an environment where they can succeed and contribute to a thriving economy. Their mission is to promote economic vitality by addressing critical issues like workforce development, infrastructure, housing, and environmental sustainability. Through advocacy and collaboration, BizFed ensures that business owners—big and small—have access to the tools, networks, and opportunities they need to thrive.
BizFed’s vision is to create a stronger, more inclusive Southern California where businesses of all sizes can grow, innovate, and positively impact their communities.
How BizFed Stands Out
BizFed is not just another business organization—it’s a movement that’s reshaping how businesses engage with policy and community. Here’s what makes BizFed unique:
- A Collective Voice: With over 200 diverse member organizations, BizFed represents nearly 420,000 businesses across Southern California, making it one of the largest and most influential business federations in the region.
- Issue-Focused Advocacy: BizFed tackles pressing policy areas such as transportation, housing, workforce development, energy, and small business growth. They provide actionable solutions that benefit the broader business ecosystem.
- Bridging Business and Policy: Through events like leadership roundtables and forums, BizFed creates spaces where business leaders can connect directly with policymakers and decision-makers.
- Proven Impact: Over the years, BizFed has successfully influenced key policies that support economic growth, including legislation on goods movement, housing reforms, and workforce training initiatives.
