Some of the most valuable benefits of being a Chamber member are the opportunities to meet other business people, learn about their businesses, let them learn about your business, and develop business relationships that are mutually beneficial. The Habersham Chamber is proud to offer the following networking events:
Business-after-Hours events are scheduled monthly throughout the year. These events are held the fourth Thursday of each month at 5:30 p.m. Attendance averages about 100 per event. Chamber members host these in their businesses to highlight and promote their companies.
New members get the opportunity to introduce themselves and their business at a Business after Hours. There is no charge to attend these events. Although these events are for Chamber members, visitors who are thinking about joining the Chamber are welcome.
Business before Hours was started to serve those members whose schedule did not fit with Business after Hours. Business before Hours is hosted in a Chamber member’s business from 8-9 a.m. This generally serves a different group from the Business after Hours;
however, Chamber members are encouraged to attend both events if possible. There is no fee to attend a Business before Hours, and visitors who are thinking about joining the Chamber are welcome.
The Chamber has a lunch networking group "Habersham Power Hour" open to all members and potential members. It is a meet-and-greet type gathering. There is no charge to attend, but participants pay for food ordered when the group meets at a restaurant.
• Habersham Power Hour- Lunch Networking Group 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. First and third Tuesdays of each month Location varies. View our Event Calendar for location announcments.

The Chamber, in conjunction with the Small Business Development Center at UGA, hosts various seminars, webinars and training opportunities throughout the year for networking and business growth and consulting. Always be sure to have business cards when attending any of these events and do not be shy about introducing yourself and your business.
