Networking Opportunities

Chamber meetings, mixers, trade shows, committees and special events can dramatically increase the visibility of your business, products and services, by providing opportunities for you to network with other business owners and managers in the Upper Tampa Bay area.

Morning Mingles

Morning Mingles are held the first Wednesday of each month at alternating locations from 7:30AM to 9:00AM. This event is FREE but reservations are requested to help our hosts ensure they are properly prepared with their FREE continental breakfast. Great opportunity to meet new people and start the relationship building process in a relaxed atmosphere. For more information or to request to be a coffee mingle "host" please email Mark Howe or call him at (813) 855-4233. For locations and reservations, please visit our online calendar.

Lunch and Learns

Lunch and Learns are held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. These events are designed to provide timely, relevant topics that help our members grow personally and professionally. Each session features a focused presentation, practical takeaways, and opportunities to connect with fellow Chamber members.

All Lunch and Learns are scheduled between 11:30AM and 1:00PM. For topics, locations, and reservations, please visit our online calendar.

Business After Hours Mixers

Business After Hours Mixers are the third Wednesday of each month at alternating member businesses within the Upper Tampa Bay Region and offer you a chance to meet fellow business owners, exchange business cards, relax with 'happy hour' refreshments and hors d' oeuvres, and promote your business one-on-one to fellow Chamber members. For locations and reservations, please visit our online calendar.

Relationship Builders

Relationship Builders is specifically designed so that members can;
• educate fellow members about their products/services so that they can be a source of referrals for each other,
• have a "safe place" to practice their 60 second commercials (elevator speeches) and longer presentations AND get timely feedback and reinforcement from fellow members, and
• have a place to ask other local business professionals about key prospects, whether chamber members or not, so that introductions and/or connections can occur. Connect with Jerry Peruzzi for more details.

Special events

Special events like Oldsmar Days & Nights, OktoberfestExpos and more are outstanding opportunities to meet and network and build relationships with business owners, community leaders and the general public. Many of these events offer local businesses an opportunity for additional visibility through event sponsorship.
