• When is the next Chamber event?

• How do I register for Chamber events?

  Online registration is available through our online event calendar. Advance registration with payment is required. Online registration is secure and requires payment by credit card. If you prefer not to register online, you may download and print a registration form from each individual Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce event web page. Mail the completed registration form, along with a check made payable to the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce, to: Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce, 211 Commerce Street, Suite 100, Nashville, TN 37201.

• If I register for an event, will I receive a reminder prior to the event?

  You can sign up to receive an automatic event reminder through the event web page on our online event calendar. However, the Chamber does not typically send registrant reminders prior to events.

• I registered for an event and now I cannot attend. Can I get a refund?

  Though we regret we are unable to offer refunds for event registrations, we are happy to accommodate substitutions. If you registered for an event and are unable to attend, please send a representative in your place.

• I want to be informed about upcoming Chamber events. Can I sign up for the Chamber's mailing list?

  The Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce sends a weekly e-newsletter called Monday Morning Report that provides details about upcoming events. Anyone can subscribe to this e-newsletter.

• Does the Chamber still offer the Future 50 Awards?

  In 2011, the Chamber partnered with the Entrepreneur Center to introduce the NEXT Awards, a brand-new event celebrating the accomplishments of entrepreneurs and small business visionaries in Middle Tennessee. The NEXT Awards recognize the area's most innovative startups and businesses for their revenue and employment growth. For more information, visit www.nextnashville.com.

• How can I present at a Chamber event?

  The Chamber defines its program of work for each fiscal year based on initiatives set forth through our board and staff strategic planning process. Unfortunately, at this time, we are not able to accept applications to present workshops for our members.
  
  We have established an online speakers bureau to provide a list of Nashville-area speakers who have expertise on business-related topics. Speaker participation is limited to representatives of Chamber-member companies at the Market Mover investment level and above.
  
  This is an opportunity to provide education to civic and other organizations that seek speakers for their professional meetings. If you would like to be listed as a speaker, click here to fill out our online application.
