Have you registered yet for the 2026 All Valley Mayors, County and Tribal Chairpersons Luncheon?

This year, we’re making a few changes to put even more focus on the conversation — with less sponsor video time, shorter panelist introductions, and more time dedicated to the panel discussion and audience questions.

Join us Friday, September 11 at the Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa in Indian Wells and hear directly from leaders from across the Coachella Valley.

Business is built on relationships.

Whether it's meeting a future customer at Lunch Club, making a new referral at a networking mixer, or collaborating with another member through one of our many events, meaningful connections happen every day through the Chamber. Sometimes all it takes is one conversation to create your next opportunity.

Who has made a positive impact on your business journey? Give them a shout-out in the comments!

We hope everyone left with new connections and a better understanding of how to make the most of their Chamber membership. What Chamber resource or opportunity are you most excited to take advantage of?
