Stryv Business Growth Partners founder, Tye Hillam, is appointed to the Committee of the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce (GSCC) and takes on the additional role of Chief Chamber Champion, supporting the Chamber’s efforts to grow and retain its membership base.
In his new role as a Committee member, Tye contributes his experience working with small and medium service based businesses, helping shape the Chamber’s strategy and advocacy on behalf of local employers.
As Chief Chamber Champion, he also leads the Chamber Champions initiative. Under Tye's leadership, the program will focus on increasing membership through internal referrals and improving member retention through more intentional engagement and support.
“My goal is to help make the Chamber the place where serious business owners feel seen, supported and connected,” Tye says. “That means not just signing up new members, but helping existing members get real value from their involvement so they want to stay and bring others in.”

GSCC President Neil Coupland welcomes Tye’s appointment and the energy he brings to the role.
“We look forward to working with Tye over the coming years and are confident he’ll bring fresh, innovative ideas to help strengthen and grow our Chamber,” Neil says.
Alongside his Chamber Champion responsibilities, Tye is also spearheading the Chamber’s International Men's Day activities. This includes coordinating a dedicated event and working with the Committee to select a men’s charity that the Chamber will support through fundraising.
“International Men's Day is a great opportunity to highlight the challenges many men face quietly in the background, especially business owners carrying a lot of responsibility,” Tye says. “If we can raise funds for a charity that supports men and also open up some healthier conversations in our business community, that is a worthwhile use of our platform.”
Tye’s appointment reflects the Chamber’s ongoing commitment to supporting local businesses not only through networking events, but through practical initiatives that foster growth, resilience and community.
