RICHMOND, VIRGINIA – At this week’s Virginia Chamber of Commerce Executive Committee meeting in Richmond, Barry DuVal announced his plans to retire as President & CEO of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce in early 2025.

Born and raised in Virginia and grew up in Newport News, Barry DuVal served as Mayor of Newport News from 1990-1996, Secretary of Commerce & Trade for Virginia from 1998-2002, and was selected as President and CEO for the Virginia Chamber of Commerce in April 2010.

“During his tenure with the Virginia Chamber of Commerce, Barry DuVal has transformed the state chamber into the most influential business advocacy organization in the state,” said Robert Duvall, Chairman of the Virginia Chamber for 2024. “I want to express the appreciation of the Board of Directors for DuVal’s outstanding leadership. The Chamber membership has grown from approximately 1,000 in 2010, to over 32,000 members today. He has raised the profile of the Chamber, and its programs have greatly enhanced the business climate of Virginia.”
