Tysons Corner Center

Last week, I photographed the 2020 JA Trade Show at Tysons Corner Center. Since both Tysons Corner Center and Brandbox sponsored the show, they had a nice showcase this Sunday morning. Overall, I was impressed with the work that these student teams put into their entrepreneurial projects. During this show, they were debuting their companies and products for sale to the public.

While walking through the trade show, I was impressed with the professionalism of the teams. Over a six-month period, the team worked further with business professionals to form a build a startup. With this in mind I could not imagine how difficult this would be to do over this amount of time. Perhaps some of these products will return to a future location in the mall!

Hitting the ground running in 2020 is important for the Tysons Chamber Board. Not only do they have Signature Events that require months of planning, they also have new initiatives on the table. Also, they have some new board members this year that are enthusiastic to put their stamp on the Chamber with their expertise!

Board Retreat

If making ‘Connections that Matter’ is the goal of the Tysons Chamber, by all means this retreat fit the bill. Stone Tower Winery is a beautiful venue for this gathering. With the size of the group, they were seated in a private tasting room. As can be seen in the photos, the table was set up in between large fermenting barrels. A sommelier poured a selection of wines for tasting. After all the tasting, the group met for lunch and continued the planning for 2020. It should be a great year for the Chamber!

Tysons Tower Club

The Tysons Chamber held the 2020 Board Installation last week at the Tysons Tower Club. Indeed he is building on projects started last year to grow the Chamber. Likewise he had the support of a larger board to attain these ambitious goals. During his presentation, he encouraged involvement even if it would be new for the coming year.

On this occasion, a panel comprised of member-companies discussed their experiences with the Chamber. ‘Connections that Matter’ is the tagline on all of the materials for events. In brief, the workshops, mixers, and committees foster the opportunities for making these connections. The panel explained these connections, and how they have contributed to their success.

Networking is of course a big part of attending. After the ‘hard part’ of the swearing in, connections were starting immediately. Best of luck in 2020!
