In addition, the networking events provide an opportunity to highlight the host as well as promote the door prize sponsors. Networking and connecting with other Chamber Members is a key component of Chamber membership and marketing your business or organization.

Chamber Members, area businesses, and organizations are encouraged to take advantage of this and all networking opportunities. Join the Chamber to connect with area businesses and organizations, meet new people, and take advantage of the opportunity to hear from the hosts. In addition, use this opportunity to keep the Chamber updated so they can assist you to the best of their ability.

Founded in 1885 as the first lake conservation organization in the country, the Lake George Association is the preeminent lake protection entity dedicated to protecting the Queen of American Lakes in Upstate New York. Through cutting-edge science by way of the Jefferson Project — a collaboration between the LGA, RPI and IBM — the LGA protects the largest lake in the Adirondack Park from five key threats: Invasive Species, Road Salt, Nutrient Pollution, Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) and Climate Change.

3 Myths about After Business Mixers & Networking Events BUSTED!

Myth: I don’t have time to go to After Business Mixers.
Busted: You don’t have to be there from 5:30 – 7:00. Stop by for 15 or 20 minutes and make some great new contacts.

Myth: It’s awkward…I won’t know anybody there.
Busted: Ask for a Chamber Ambassador or Board Member when you arrive. These outgoing volunteers will introduce you to the crowd and then you will know lots of people. You can also connect with an Ambassador, Board Member, or TACC Staff Member ahead of time.

Myth: I don’t need to go – I’m on social media.
Busted: There is no substitute for face-to-face networking. People do business with people they know…so come to After Hours and get to know more people.

No excuses – we’ll see you at the next After Business Mixer/Networking Opportunity!
