Entec Si CEO elected to Chamber Council

Our CEO, Eman Al-Hillawi, has been elected to sit on Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce’s (GBCC) Chamber Council, along with eight new prominent business figures from a range of sectors.

Elections for the new positions on Chamber Council took place throughout September and were open to members of the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce division.

Chamber Council is responsible for steering the work of the GBCC policy team and meets on a quarterly basis to discuss the latest national and regional political developments, vote on priority themes, and engage in constructive dialogue regarding key campaigns.

During this time, Eman will promote and steer the work of the policy team, attend Chamber events, and share feedback from fellow Chamber members and business contacts at Chamber Council meetings.

Commenting on being elected, Eman said:

“Being the founder and owner of a small business for more than 25 years, I feel I can contribute my knowledge and experience to the Council and its members.

 “Running a business is incredibly rewarding but can be challenging at times so I’m looking forward to sharing my perspective on the council’s priority areas and engaging with other businesses in the region.

“I’d also like to thank those whose votes led to my election on the council.”

Chamber Council members can serve up to three consecutive three-year teams.

Henrietta Brealey, CEO of the GBCC, said:

“Chamber Council is our brilliant panel of business leaders who keep our finger on the pulse of the needs and experiences of our members.

“They shape our policy and campaigns priorities and act as both a sounding board and key ambassadors for the Chamber and our city-region’s business community.

“I am absolutely delighted at the calibre and breadth of industries, business size, experience and backgrounds of our newly elected and appointed Council members.”
