When COVID-19 hit Florida, the West Orange Chamber had to reevaluate how to supply Educational Programs to our Members. The West Orange Chamber Team was quick to shift to Virtual Events.
Call, Listen and Learn – these virtual events featured the most up to date information on COVID-19 Resources for our Members and was offered to non-members as well.
Spotlight Speaker Series – this series of events was established to help members cope with the COVID-19 Crisis with a focus on overcoming adversity both personally and professionally to come out of the situation as a stronger person and business leader.
