Host a Business After Hours
The Windsor Chamber offers monthly networking events called Business After Hours. These events are well-attended and offer a great opportunity for you to show off your business.

See photos from past Business After Hours.

Chamber members and their guests arrive around 5:30 PM and network over hors d'oeuvres. A Chamber representative then calls the event to order and attendees introduce themselves and briefly describe their business affiliation. The hosts offer a presentation about their business and guests tour the facility if appropriate. Winning raffle tickets are drawn and the networking continues till 7:00 PM or so.

Benefits of Hosting an After Hours
- Exposure: Get 20 - 60 people through your doors
- Free publicity: Announcements go out to the newspapers, various online calendars, social media and our Chamber eNews.

Business After Hours are generally held on the 2nd Wednesday of each month September to November and January to June.

As the host, you provide food and beverages (connecting with another Chamber member for catering is a good idea) and raffle prizes.
