Chamber Organizations & Resources

CHAMBER AMBASSADOR COMMITTEE

The Chamber Ambassador Committee is a group of chamber members who go the extra mile to welcome new chamber members, help current members become more engaged in chamber activities and honor businesses for their achievements.

Committee members visit all new chamber members and assist in events such as ribbon cuttings and grand openings. At chamber events, committee members greet all members and help them get to know each other.

The committee is also responsible for selecting candidates to be considered for the chamber’s Business of the Month award. Those candidates are then voted on by chamber members, and the Ambassador Committee visits the selected winner and presents the business with a plaque and banner.

UTAH IGNITE STEERING COMMITTEE

The Utah Ignite Steering Committee is part of the Utah Ignite organization, which operates as a partnership between the Point of the Mountain Chamber of Commerce and US Ignite, a program under the National Science Foundation. Utah Ignite is one of about 30 Smart Gigabit Communities throughout the United States.

The goal is to create “smart communities” across the country that collaborate on ideas and share knowledge for the betterment of all residents that live in those areas. A smart community can be a local city or an entire state.

UTAH COUNTY BUSINESS SUMMIT

One of Utah County’s top business events, the Utah County Business Summit was launched in 2014 with the intent of providing ongoing education about best business practices to local business professionals. It has since been held every year in the fall.

The summit is a half-day event beginning in the morning and ending after lunch. Critical insights are discussed and shared during the morning and attendees have the opportunity to network during lunch.

Each year, the summit attracts a group of exceptional speakers who each have unique perspectives and business insights and inspire, direct and counsel their audience. Past speakers have included Utah Jazz CEO Greg Miller, former NFL quarterback Scott Mitchell, KSL Radio host Maria Shilaos, Overstock.com Chairman and former CEO Johnathan Johnson, and prominent entrepreneur and businessman Brandon Fugal.

Businesses are also invited to showcase themselves as part of the summit’s vendor exhibition. The annual event is organized by the Point of the Mountain, American Fork and Pleasant Grove-Lindon chambers of commerce. CONNECT 4 LUNCH

Connect 4 Lunch is a highly focused, tri-chamber, monthly networking event involving business professionals from throughout the northern Utah County area. Attendees network in groups of no more than six over lunch.

These smaller group sizes allow business professionals of all types to get to know each other in a more meaningful way. Personal and professional experiences are shared and needs and ideas are discussed, all while a fantastic lunch is enjoyed. Those attending are invited to bring a door prize from their business to give away if they wish.

Connect 4 Lunch is held on the third Thursday of every month at various area restaurants. It is hosted by the Point of the Mountain, American Fork and Pleasant Grove-Lindon chambers of commerce.
