Why Host?

Bring People In

Chamber networking events are an easy way to introduce a crowd of professionals to your space, service, and story. Whether it’s over coffee in the morning or cocktails after hours, your business becomes the center of attention.

Meaningful Connections

Build authentic relationships with fellow members and potential customers across a variety of industries. By hosting, you’re creating an atmosphere where connections come naturally.

Amplify Your Brand

As the host, you’ll have the opportunity to speak directly to all attendees, sharing your story, services, and unique offerings. It’s the perfect platform to position yourself as a local leader and create buzz that lasts long after the event ends.

Event Types Perfect for Your Business

Most events are held monthly, providing a consistent opportunity for our members to engage with the community. Attendance varies depending on the event and can be tailored to your venue’s capacity.

Business After Hours

Host an evening networking event with light food and drinks. These events typically attract 50–100+ attendees from diverse industries who are ready to unwind, mingle, and learn about your business.

Coffee & Contacts

Early risers and working parents love starting their day with meaningful connections. These intimate morning events usually draw 20–40 attendees, making them perfect for introducing your space and services in a more relaxed setting.

YPsocial

Connect with professionals, ages 21–35, as they build their careers. These fun and lively after-hours networking events typically attract 20–40+ attendees, offering an opportunity to connect with a smaller, more focused audience in an intimate yet engaging atmosphere. Add an interactive, activity-based element or a skill-building experience to make your event stand out and leave a lasting impression.

Celebratory Events

Celebrate your grand opening or milestone anniversary with a ribbon-cutting ceremony! The Chamber can help facilitate this special event, bringing community attention and excitement to your big moment. Fill out our ribbon cutting request form if you are interested.

Large Capacity Venues

We host monthly and annual large-scale award dinners and speaker events that draw 200–500+ attendees. These events require venues with the capacity to accommodate catered meals, bars, stages, and proper AV equipment. Your venue becomes the stage for these high-profile gatherings, showcasing what your space and staff can offer.
