Chicopee Chamber of Commerce to Host Coffee & Conversation Networking Event

CHICOPEE —  The Chicopee Chamber of Commerce invites local business leaders and community members to the final Coffee & Conversation networking event of the year at Westover Metropolitan Airport, 255 Padgette St., Chicopee. The event will take place on Friday, Nov. 15 from 9 to 10 a.m.

This session, sponsored by Valley Opportunity Council, marks the conclusion of the Coffee & Conversation series introduced in 2024 as a dynamic alternative to traditional after-hours networking. This initiative has successfully brought together a diverse range of businesses and organizations, enhancing engagement and fostering new connections within the Chicopee Chamber community.

The event at Westover Metropolitan Airport is particularly meaningful as it coincides with National Veterans Small Business Week. The host, Andy Widor, president of the Westover Metropolitan Development Corp. (WMDC), is a veteran of the U. S. Air Force. He expressed his eagerness to showcase the extensive economic activities supported by the airport and WMDC, especially as WMDC celebrates a half-century of success. This is an opportunity for attendees to learn about the various projects and initiatives driving growth in the area.

The event is free for chamber members and open to non-members for a fee of $15. Complimentary attendance is extended to veteran-owned businesses. Click here to register.
