NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES – Our monthly Business Network Lunch (2nd Tuesday), Breakfast Links (3rd Monday), Business After Hours (3rd Thursday), Lunch & Learn Business Seminars (4th Wednesday) offer the opportunity to introduce yourself and your business, and network with other members to make business contacts and socialize.  Our quarterly Silver Screen Seminars feature video training for professional and personal development, and quarterly Face2Face Networking gives attendees one-on-one networking time with other members. 

BUSINESS DIRECTORY – Your membership provides you with two listings in The Official Guide to Georgetown and Membership Directory; alphabetical and categorical.  10,000 copies are distributed amongst our membership, in our lobby, the Visitor Center, and local hotels.  This directory is also mailed to potential new citizens and businesses upon request of a relocation packet.  Advertising opportunities in this publication are only offered to our members.
