The Southern Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce supports and enhances the business community of Southern Rhode Island and promotes opportunities for the growth and development of its member businesses. Advocacy, connections, credibility, educational opportunities and referrals are some of the ways we foster that growth. We hold two networking events each month. The First Friday Coffee, on the first Friday of each month and our Business After Hours, usually the third Wednesday of the month. We believe that the best networking happens when you have a variety people at each event so we open all of our events to the general public. Visit our website www. srichamber.com to see a list of events.
Our 30th Anniversary celebration also gives us a reason to share some great stuff with our members and prospective members. We are welcoming new members with valuable promotions, such as -- complimentary and discounted advertising in local newspapers, $30 in Chamber Bucks (good for events), and a special for new businesses opened in 2012, a $30 membership discount. All those members that renew this year are also eligible for $30 back in Chamber Bucks – bucks to be used at any of our upcoming events.
