Jill Meyer has served as the CEO of the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber since September 2015. Her work leading the Chamber has put the long-time critically important organization on an aggressive course to grow the vibrancy and economic prosperity of the Cincinnati region. Member businesses across the Cincinnati MSA (16 counties across Southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky, and Southeastern Indiana) engage with the Chamber as their lead to help drive the growth of their businesses and the overall economics of the community.
Under Meyer’s leadership, the Chamber has maintained an unwavering commitment to model inclusion and regional thinking in everything it does. As part of its work, the Chamber is spearheading the charge to create regional transportation and infrastructure investments that connect more people to work, education, healthcare and all that the Cincinnati region has to offer. A core part of the Chamber’s work is expanding and diversifying the talent base to enable the region’s businesses, and thereby the whole community, to thrive and grow in a more sustainable and inclusive way. Additionally, during Meyer’s tenure, the Chamber launched BLINK®, adding a fresh new attitude and platform for the Cincinnati region to tell its story to the world.
Meyer is well-versed in business advocacy. An attorney, she practiced law for twenty years at Frost Brown Todd LLC and served as the Member-in- Charge of the law firm’s biggest office, in Cincinnati. Personally passionate about her community, she is a long-standing member of both the United Way’s Tocqueville Society and ArtsWave Women’s Leadership Roundtable and is an alum of the Chamber’s inaugural WE Lead class and Leadership Cincinnati Class 34.
Meyer earned her J.D. at Northern Kentucky University’s Salmon P. Chase College of Law and her B.A. at Mount St. Joseph University, both magna cum laude. In 2016, she was awarded a Doctor of Humane Letters from Mount St. Joseph University.
