We are so grateful to everyone who joined us for this historical week in making a memorable impact in our nation’s capital.
As one of the largest chamber Fly-In events in the country, the Vegas Chamber is acutely aware that this would not be possible without the support of all of you.
Along with meetings with our Nevada Congressional leadership and presenting the Nevada Business Champion Award to U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto, our attendees heard from several U.S. Chamber of Commerce executives on healthcare, employer relations and infrastructure, keynote speakers Ambassador of Mexico Esteban Moctezuma and national pollster Frank Luntz and many more.
Plus, the Vegas Chamber held a special Facebook Live event from D.C. to announce its new Southern Nevada Workforce Solutions web portal at SNVWorkforce.com to assist the community with upskilling, training and potential funding for training and educational resources. This new portal aligns directly with the Chamber’s priority of workforce development. See more details on page 35.
Special thanks to Presenting Sponsor Cox Communications, Signature Sponsors Boyd Gaming Corporation, Southwest Gas and the Porter Group, and to our 45 sponsors who, without them, we could not do what we do to provide an outstanding guest experience for both virtually and in-person attendees.
Additional thanks to President’s Club Member Karl Nickoley/Frequency Pictures for capturing interviews, editing videos on-the-daily and ensuring that our work on behalf of Nevada’s businesses is more evident than ever.
Congratulations to the Vegas Chamber Government Affairs team who pulled off an amazing feat during a time like no other in the world’s history. Special
thanks to Political Affairs and Fundraising Manager Erica Valdriz, and the Porter
Group, who was the behind-the-scenes masterminds of the whole trip and spent countless hours in the past year to make this trip an overwhelming success that it was.
