LEADERSHIP MATTERS A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Valued Chamber Members, As the holiday season is upon us, we at The Chamber hope you are able to spend quality time with loved ones and reflect on the year. We have so much to be grateful for this year. In November, we hosted an engaging Young Professionals Network event at Lithia Motors Headquarters. The event featured two fantastic breakout speakers - Tyler Lake, CEO of Juggernaut Marketing, and Damien Rennie, founder of Millionaire Maker. They provided invaluable advice and actionable tips for our emerging leaders on topics like social media marketing and investing for the future. Our YPN events aim to propel young professionals forward through networking, mentorship, and growth opportunities. We also held our November Forum Luncheon sponsored by Avista Utilities. Dan Kirschner, executive director of the Northwest Gas Association, gave an insightful presentation on navigating current energy challenges and trends. His talk provided key takeaways for local businesses and organizations on positioning themselves for energy resilience and sustainability. See the full Business Review for a recap listed in this month’s edition to learn more about this timely discussion. Coming up on January 20th, we have our highly anticipated Roaring 20’s Casino Night. This glamorous speakeasy-themed event promises to whisk you back to the jazz age with casino games, music, gourmet bites, photo booths, prizes and more! Act fast - sponsorships will sell out! Secure your spot now to take advantage of exclusive perks like free tickets, premier logo placement, and exposure through our marketing channels. Don’t miss out on this unique branding and networking opportunity! Learn more about this opportunity right here in the Business Review or on our website! Most of all, thank you to each and every one of our members for making this year so fantastic. We are truly grateful for your support, and hope that you are out there making the most of the rest of the year and of your membership with us. Don’t forget to shop small and local this holiday season, and help us continue helping businesses succeed in Medford and Jackson County.
Sincerly,
