After an 18-month hiatus of in-person events due to COVID-19, the Chamber looks forward to welcoming the community back to safe indoor events, which have recently begun across the county.
“I was so happy we were able to work with the Saratoga City Center to ensure we could host the Mind, Body, Soul Expo safely and successfully indoors after having to postpone it due to COVID,” said Gem Rhodes, owner and founder, Mind, Body, Soul Expo, LLC. “I know the Saratoga County Chamber will work just as closely with the City Center to pull off a safe B2B Expo, and I look forward to attending and meeting other business owners.”
Throughout the years, participating businesses and sponsor organizations have turned to the Chamber’s B2B Expo as Upstate New York’s premier showcase for the technologies, products, and services that represent our community.
“Incorporating community leaders, professionals, and interested participants at all levels, the B2B Expo serves as an unparalleled marketing, branding, and communication resource for regional collaboration. It’s an event we’re proud to sponsor and look forward to each year,” said Howard S. Foote, UHY, office managing director – Capital Region.
Businesses who attended in previous years, including KPM Restoration, will return to the event, finding it as a valuable opportunity to network and build relationships.“The B2B Expo is an all-around great networking event, providing the opportunity to give back to local businesses, which we all need to do during these difficult times,” said Jamie Kennedy, owner, KPM Restoration. “This is a great way to get involved in your community.”
