Accelerated Networking Luncheon Accelerated Networking Luncheon is a quarterly, members-only networking event geared toward time-crunched business professionals. This event is a great way to make new business contacts, add to your referral business and build stronger relationships in the community. Annual Meeting Each year, the Chamber celebrates the previous year’s accomplishments with a special evening of recognitions, introductions, and entertainment. At this festive affair, the Chamber announces outgoing and incoming officers and members of the Board of Directors and honors the recipients of several important community awards. Business After Five Business After Five is an after-hours networking event that provides members a forum for promoting their businesses. Each month the event is held at a different location and attracts 150-300 business professionals. Chamber Classic Members enjoy networking on the greens at the Annual Golf Tournament. This event provides members with the opportunity to play a challenging, private course while sponsors use the event to provide exposure for their companies.

Get Involved!

This event connects community members with opportunities to volunteer in our community with nonprofits and government agencies. Wake Up Naples Wake Up Naples is a popular and well-attended breakfast event, held on the second Wednesday of the month.

Youth Business Fair The Youth Business Fair will offer the opportunity for young entrepreneurs, ages 6-17, to showcase and sell their product or service to the public. Working with the Chamber, children will learn free-market principles, how the workforce drives the local economy and relish in the rewards of their hard work. The Naples Chamber will work with participants post-event to help continue their professional growth, connect them with business leaders and provide support on their entrepreneurial journey. |
