January’s B2B was a memorable way to kick off the new year, bringing members together at Industrious, the home of the Chamber, for an evening filled with connection, celebration, and community. Co-hosted by Merrill Lynch Wealth Management, the event welcomed a packed room of Chamber members ready to network and start 2026 strong.
The evening featured several exciting highlights, including book signings with Chamber members Joel Barrett, Hazel Krebs, and Michael Mackie. Attendees had the opportunity to meet the authors, learn more about their work, and celebrate the diverse talents within our Chamber community.
Another standout moment of the night was a ribbon cutting for Modern Family Alliance, who also call Industrious home. This celebration marked an exciting milestone for the organization and offered members a chance to show their support while learning more about the impactful work Modern Family Alliance is doing.
With a delicious pizza spread, plenty of conversation, and lots of reasons to celebrate, the evening offered many opportunities for connection. Members met new faces, strengthened existing relationships, and enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere that makes B2B's such a favorite monthly event.
Thank you to Industrious for hosting, Merrill Lynch Wealth Management for co-hosting, and to everyone who joined us to make January’s B2B such a success. We’re looking forward to many more opportunities to connect, celebrate, and support our Chamber community throughout the year.
