Strictly Business Happy Hour July 2

Monday, June 28th, 2010

The Greater Phoenix Black Chamber of Commerce (GPBCC) will kick off its “Strictly Business Happy Hour” series July 2 at Bentley’s Nightclub, 308 N. 2nd Ave., in Downtown Phoenix.

GPBCC1stFridayFlyerfrontThe “Strictly Business Happy Hour” is scheduled for the first friday of every month. If you own or you are affiliated with a start-up, small, medium and/or large business in Arizona, don’t miss this event! The GPBCC welcomes members of ALL races.

The Greater Phoenix Black Chamber of Commerce offers a wide variety of benefits for entrepreneurs and business leaders including networking opportunities, referrals, mentorships, advice on research and increased visibility in the community.

Currently, the Greater Phoenix Black Chamber of Commerce is reorganizing its leadership. A new President and CEO and board members will be named soon (possibly at the Happy Hour?). Although the leadership changes make some people a little nervous, I think it’s a great opportunity for a member to make an impact on the GPBCC while the organization is retooling! Moreover, I hear that the candidates for the President/CEO and board positions are impressive.

If you miss the “Strictly Business Happy Hour,” the Greater Phoenix Black Chamber of Commerce will be hosting a number of events throughout the year to help members network, socialize and learn from each other.

Rodgers To Keynote Black Chamber Anniversary Celebration

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

The Greater Phoenix Black Chamber of Commerce’s (GPBCC) 11th Anniversary celebration, “Telling Our Story,” will be held on December 11 at the Phoenix Convention Center.

This event will feature Johnathan Rodgers, President & CEO of TV One, who will deliver the keynote address. The GPBCC will also present the Corporate Business Partner and Small Business Partner of the Year awards.

My wife and I attended the GPBCC gala last year and we had an amazing time. If you are able to purchase tickets, I strongly encourage you to do so. It’s an excellent opportunity for you to mingle with the Valley’s movers and shakers.
