The Clinton-Sampson Chamber of Commerce offers over 100 networking opportunities to Chamber Members each year. Through events such as Business after Hours, Member of the Week, ribbon cutting celebrations, Business During Hours, leadership programs and more, we encourage our members to bring their business card and let the Chamber work for them!

The Clinton-Sampson Chamber of Commerce recognizes a Chamber Member each Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. (unless otherwise indicated due to scheduling conflicts or holidays). We encourage other Chamber Members, Ambassadors and Committee Members to join us as we celebrate and thank a fellow Chamber Member for their support of the Chamber and contribution to Sampson County.

These are key networking events allowing business owners and professionals to meet fellow Chamber members. Within your new Chamber network you can create a pool of resources as you exchange ideas, business cards and share common challenges/successes in the business community. Networking events are typically scheduled for the second Thursday of each month.

The Chamber is proud to recognize economic growth within Sampson County for Chamber Members by sponsoring ribbon cutting and grand opening celebrations. The photo will be sent to the media to include in the local paper. The event will also be posted on the Chamber social media. Ribbon cutting celebrations are extended to Chamber Members that have been in business two years or less. We encourage other Chamber members to take advantage of this networking opportunity and celebration growth within Sampson County.

The Clinton-Sampson Chamber of Commerce partners with the Small Business Center at Sampson Community College to offer a variety of seminars each year. These seminars are to foster community growth and development by identifying key issues that affect a healthy business environment and the quality of life within the community. We always encourage members to take advantage of this educational opportunity as well as bring your business card and expand your professional network with other attendees.

These are just a few of our many networking opportunities that we offer throughout our year. We encourage you to take advantage and do not miss out on a chance to connect and engage with our wonderful community!
