a fun and casual environment.
Our vision is to cultivate an inclusive and innovative
business community full of opportunity.
Connector Events
Emerge’s monthly mixers help fill out the Chamber’s calendar with intimate, interactive networking events. There is no cost to attend. Our connectors make a great intro to the Chamber or will help you deepen your involvement.
Networking lets you tell your story, expand your reach, and learn about other operators in our region. Chamber members can sponsor a connector at their own brick-and-mortar location or partner up with another member, including the Chamber offices, as a venue co-sponsor. To find out more about hosting, experiences@victoriachamber.ca.
Mentorship
The Emerge mentorship program pairs emerging or mid-career professionals with people who have gained expertise in their field; discovered solutions to their business problems; and are ready to share their knowledge.
Pairs meet throughout the year, and the whole cohort gathers for fun, informative events each season. In 2025, the Mentorship Program is 22-participants strong. Chamber members who would like to join in 2026 can reach out to emerge@victoriachamber.ca. We will let you know when the application portal opens in October.
Community Engagement
Our community engagement team builds bridges between Chamber members and the community initiatives that fit with their values. Local businesses amplify the impact of our charities and non-profits that uplift those in need.
We promote humanitarian and environmental work in the community by sharing success stories as well as posting volunteer opportunities on social media and the Chamber’s Job Board. Have a look to see how your team can help out. Or click here to share ways that others can get involved with your worthy cause.
