The Chandler Chamber Community Foundation has officially launched their first new program of 2025: Chandler Young Professionals. Designed for business people ages 21 to 39, this exclusive series uses the Chamber’s connections with the East Valley business community to foster development in entry-level professionals and entrepreneurs.
If you attended an industry-specific networking event at the start of your career, you know how intimidating it can be to navigate a room of seasoned veterans. The Chandler Chamber’s Young Professionals group understands that struggle and aims to provide a fresh approach – one that meets young professionals exactly where they are.
"As the East Valley continues to develop, young professionals are the future of our state’s economy," said Terri Kimble, President & CEO of the Chandler Chamber of Commerce.
"They bring fresh perspectives, new ideas, and the energy needed to drive our industries forward, including the growing semiconductor & advanced manufacturing industries right here in Chandler. By fostering growth in young professionals, the Chandler Chamber is investing in the next generation of leaders who will play a crucial role in sustaining and expanding Arizona's economic success."
Chandler Young Professionals will meet for four main events, with topics ranging from volunteering for local nonprofits, to going behind-the-scenes at one of the East Valley’s hottest businesses. Group members will have access to additional private professional development opportunities throughout 2025.
The first event in this brand-new series is a private introductory mixer on Thursday, February 27, 2025, from 4:00-5:30 pm. Since this is limited to young professionals, event details will only be shared with registered members.
