The final Portage Chamber of Commerce Rise & Shine Portage seminar was held on July 2 and a new member benefit known as Rise, Shine & Share Portage will take its place on a new meeting date each month. The new program will be conducted on the second Thursday of each month at 8 a.m. starting August 14 at the Portage University Center Room 103, and will provide a business networking opportunity for Portage Chamber members and their invited guests. Each Chamber member attendee will be able to present a half-minute introduction of themselves and their business. In addition, during each meeting, a draw of business cards of those present will determine the following month's speaker, who will have up to 15 minutes to discuss their business goods or services, news, events, goals, vision, business plan or any other topic related to their business.
Rise Shine and Share Portage offers Portage Chamber members an opportunity to share their ideas, business strategies and successes, and to exchange business referrals. The goal of the program is to increase business for our members. Please join us on August 14!
