The Chamber hosts 200+ events and networking opportunities throughout the year, including:
Build Your Business Breakfast
Build Your Business (BYB) is a weekly networking meeting where you can meet and connect with fellow Chamber member businesses and enjoy a casual and informal setting to market your business, products, and/or services, and increase your referral base! The program is a fun, simple, and easy format. Come and join us for breakfast and network, network, network! BYB is currently held every Friday from 8am to 9am and free for Chamber Members to attend.
Chamber Mixers
Held the third Thursday of every month from 5 -7 p.m. at a different Chamber member business, Chamber Mixers are your chance to network and learn more about the local businesses that make up the Santa Maria Valley community. Make new friends, reconnect with colleagues, and promote your business!
Ribbon Cuttings
Chamber Ribbon Cuttings are a fantastic opportunity to celebrate Chamber member businesses with the local community. New Chamber members and those celebrating a location change or significant anniversary are eligible to host a ribbon cutting to celebrate. Ribbon cuttings are open to the public and we encourage all to attend and celebrate local business with us!
