A central objective of the Greater Norwalk Chamber of Commerce is to provide varied and valuable benefits for its members, enabling their businesses to develop, advance and grow, as well as the community.
Networking |
The Chamber provides numerous networking opportunities for its members. The two major programs in this category are the Business After Hours and Networking Breakfast. The Chamber also takes part in regional multi-Chamber expos and networking events throughout the year. Although all Chamber events provide the opportunity to network, these programs emphasize this particular aspect, while also highlighting a hosting Chamber member.
