About This Event
The Fall Business Classic has been one of the Board of Trade’s most popular signature events for decades, thanks to its lively evening of networking, conversation, and connection. Each year, we gather at one of the region’s newest venues, bringing together hundreds of business leaders, community stakeholders, and regional elected officials. Guests enjoy a festive atmosphere with heavy hors d’oeuvres, drinks, and the opportunity to build relationships across industries in a professional setting.
Audience For This Series
Board member attendance is encouraged, and we welcome all Board of Trade member organizations to have at least one company representative join us. Multiple attendees from the same organization are also welcome. This will be a great opportunity to connect with your team, engage with fellow members, and network with regional peers.
