“Wow, thank you Urbandale Chamber of Commerce for making me feel so welcome. As a new member, I could not have had a better first experience. I joined in July amidst Covid-19, not really knowing what to expect. I have attended several functions via Zoom and each time I met someone new. It has been great to take the conversations from a chamber event to a coffee to learn more about our wonderful members. The best experience thus far is the one event I could social distance and still see people in person. The Welcome back Heroes breakfast at Urbandale High School, to say thank you to teachers for all their hard work and the work to come in our ever changing environment. It was held outdoors in a drive through breakfast line. The Chamber came out to celebrate and it was great to see so many people giving thanks to others in our community. I look forward to more of those face-to-face opportunities as well as the Zoom meetings. I truly appreciate all the Urbandale Chamber does to continue to make these events possible. Thank you!”

The seamless collaboration between the Chamber and city leadership galvanizes the community to create the most vibrant business community in the metro. The opportunity to network, share best practices, and collaborate with the top business leaders in the Des Moines area is unmatched by other organizations. Urbandale IS Central Iowa’s business chamber.”
