- To act as an advocate for the business and professional community, translating into action the thinking of its members.
- To deliver specific services that can be most effectively performed by a local organization both to its members and to the community as a whole.
- To promote quality of life for the people of Hollywood.

Message from the President
This year’s theme is “passion for excellence” and with this in mind, newly elected President of the Chamber, Alan Koslow of Becker & Poliakoff states, “I am honored and privileged to serve the Chamber. I welcome the opportunity to work with a committed Board of Directors and a new and dynamic Executive Director. With passion and a commitment for excellence, the next decade will bring profitable partnerships and prosperity to the Greater Hollywood area, and the Chamber plans on taking an active leadership role in making this happen!”
Mr. Koslow was recently selected by his peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® for the specialty of Gaming Law, which makes him the only listed attorney in Gaming Law in Florida. He is also Becker & Poliakoff’s lead attorney for entertainment, gaming, pari-mutuel, sports and municipal law. When Mr. Koslow is not directing the Firm’s Entertainment, Hospitality and Gaming Law Department, he is also accepting the role of a valued trustee member of the GHCC.
