Greater Rochester Chamber is where success isn’t solitary. We connect over 150,000 leaders, changemakers, and doers representing over 1,300 member companies across the region to solve problems, shape policy, and open doors—for today’s workforce and tomorrow’s economy.
Every event is built for connection.
Our event sponsorships allow you to target specific audiences based on event series and type, which will strategically align your brand with key topics most important to you, and directly connect with other attendees interested in those ideals. By sponsoring, you’re becoming part of what’s possible when people, purpose, and progress come together.
Access that accelerates.
By sponsoring Greater Rochester Chamber’s events, you can not only participate in the conversations that matter to the future of our region, but help shape them. Our sponsors receive VIP treatment and access to connect with our attendees and all members through public advertising and private conversations.
Success isn’t solitary, we rise together.
Data from the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives shows that 64% of people familiar with their local chamber are more likely to purchase from a business that is associated with their chamber, and 63% are more likely to recommend it. By sponsoring our events, we’re entering a powerful partnership that helps us both rise—together.
Big moments bring us together.
Greater Rochester Chamber prominently features sponsors - both online and in-person. Our website hosts over 16,000 users each month, and our in-person events range from intimate conversations of 30 people to large scale parties with 1,800 guests. Either way, we make sure to show off the organizations whose support make it possible. 05.
