Programs & Events

Creating opportunities for members to connect with business professionals, mentors, and potential customers is the Chamber’s greatest strength.  Our programs are always evolving to meet the needs of our members from the monthly meetings, educational seminars, legislative forums, social functions and business mixers.  By taking the leadership role in developing programs that contribute to economic development, quality of life, education, and awareness the Chamber helps members utilize their connections to improve business and create a thriving community for themselves and their employees to live, work, learn and play.

Build Your Business Luncheons

Join us for this series of lunch meetings to learn about important business issues.  Each month will feature an expert speaker, lunch, business card exchange and the opportunity to create and renew connections with area movers and shakers.

Business Mixers

Chamber Business Mixer events are the perfect venue to develop relationships with Chamber members in the business community and have some fun too!  Bring your business cards and network with hundreds of local business people.  Events are hosted at different locations throughout the county each month and attendance is FREE for Chamber members.  Click the Chamber Events link on the left to view our calendar of events.  Interested in hosting a Business Mixer?  Contact Renee Blomstrom at (610) 489-6660 or by email at renee@pvchamber.net.

PV WIN

The mission of PV WIN (Women in Networking) is to provide a platform for PV Chamber women to build strategic alliances, network, share ideas and support one another to achieve their goals.  Our collaboration will foster personal and professional growth through participation in stimulating programs and educate participants in areas such as work/life balance, health/wellness and business.  All female representatives of PV Chamber member businesses, educational and non-profit organizations are invited to attend PV WIN events.  We also encourage members to invite guests to attend our PV WIN events.

PV WIN programming is as diverse as the backgrounds of our members represented in the forum.  Past events include PV WIN Spring Community Fair and Expo which brought together local businesses and residents for an afternoon filled with networking, business expo, fashion show and educational break-out sessions.  Proceeds from admission tickets were donated to a local non-profit, Erin’s Dream.  The ladies have enjoyed luncheons featuring keynote speakers presenting topics on women’s health, inspirational success stories, overcoming obstacles and business topics.   Additional PV WIN events include Wine Tasting Seminar, Spa Night and Girls Night Out Mixers.

Business Owner’s Roundtables

The Business Owner Roundtable ongoing series is one of the PV Chamber’s newest programs.
This is not another networking event or seminar, but rather an interactive discussion and sharing of best practices amongst business owners and key decision makers. Each session focuses on an important business issue that impacts all business owners and is facilitated by David Akers, President and CEO of LMS Solutions. Ideas and best practices are captured and shared out with all attendees. Attendees are able to share processes and tools that have worked for them, while also learning about those that have worked for others. It’s a great way to help each other find greater success!
