The Knoxville Chamber of Commerce is focused on providing the best opportunities for our members and the Knoxville business community. We do that through three different lenses – education, networking, and collective marketing. We like to think of our programs as a la carte: take advantage of the programs that make sense for your business!
Lunch & Learn
These education sessions occur over the lunch hour and cover various topics regarding business challenges.
Let’s Meet for Koffee
A morning opportunity for local business leaders to get together monthly in an informal setting to discuss, share, and simply know that they are not alone in their business journey.
Idea Exchange
Bring your new ideas, expansion plans for existing business, or whatever your dreams may be for a workshop to help you get to the next step in your journey. Your plans can be at any stage of the planning process from only in your mind to a fully written out business plan. Our goal is to encourage growth, development, and the launch of small businesses through harnessing the power of collaborative, community-based idea exchanges.
Women’s Mentoring
Hosted by the Eastern Affiliates: Grinnell, Knoxville & Newton Chamber of Commerce is a program in collaboration with the Greater Des Moines Partnership to bring together women for a networking, coaching and mentoring session from the region’s more influential business leaders. The event is designed for women to find inspiration and guidance on their careers and is open to anyone in the Greater Des Moines community who would like to network and further their professional development.
