Cape Chamber Business Development Opportunities

Cape Chamber

The Cape Chamber is dedicated to providing development opportunities for business and professional growth. One of the ways we help grow our community is through the Business Builders program.

Business Builders is a multidimensional program available to Chamber members consisting of several elements:

Business Builders workshops are lunchtime presentations from local and regional experts on timely topics. Events are scheduled as the Chamber identifies needs for training or information in key areas. We have hosted Business Builders workshops on topics such as cyber security, communicating across generations and search engine optimization.

Live interviews with area professionals giving advice ranging from succession planning to negotiation are the focus of our recently launched Facebook Live series. Tune in for these 10-15 minute lunchtime conversations monthly on the Chamber’s Facebook page.

Grow Strong is a quarterly luncheon for business leaders with 30 or more employees. Discussion topics focus on business expansion programs, information exchange, relationship building and other efforts helpful in strengthening existing business.

Similar to Grow Strong, Business Builders Exchange is a quarterly luncheon for businesses with less than 30 employees. Relevant topics include how to grow your business, publicity and exposure management, human resources and other areas of concern to smaller businesses.

And finally, exclusive access to online training will soon be available through the Cape Chamber. A wide variety of educational programs will all be accessible for members through the Member Information Center.

John Mehner is the former President and CEO of the Cape Chamber.
