New Year Brings New Opportunities

As the New Year begins, I like to take time to reflect back but also to look ahead. It has been a privilege and pleasure to serve as President & CEO of the Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce, and I cannot wait for this coming year and all of its potential.
 
We strive to provide our members with resources that support their growth and development. This year as always, remember to Think Local First by visiting our online business directory, as well as ShopTheHudsonValley.com where you can showcase exclusive offers to entice new customers.
 
We continue to work hard to ensure our members are prepared for new federal and state laws, and will continue to provide updates to the business community through the Dutchess Business Notification Network. This partnership with various government and nonprofit organizations has been a vital resource for many businesses, and we will continue to lead this effort in providing factual information and resources to the business community.
 
We will also continue to host our events in a hybrid format to ensure that our members have an opportunity to participate in a manner they are comfortable with. Our signature events continue to evolve in the format we provide them, but I’m especially excited for our new Annual Gala which will allow us to highlight different parts of the Hudson Valley.
 
This Chamber is part of a winning team of business owners and organizations who together do great things. I’d like to thank the Board of Directors, the staff, and especially our members, for your continued support. Here is to a new year, and a new beginning!
