Conference Overview
The BC Chamber of Commerce’s Annual General Meeting & Conference is the premier event of the year for the business community in British Columbia.
The conference draws Chamber members from across the province, with three full days of speakers, presentations, panel discussions, and networking opportunities.
Hosted in a different community each year, the BC Chamber’s AGM & Conference addresses the issues and concerns that matter most to our diverse membership and to the public.
Significantly, at the AGM, delegates from across the province gather to debate those policies which will dictate the Chamber’s advocacy efforts for the following year.
A forum for new ideas and opportunities, the BC Chamber’s AGM & Conference increases in popularity and exposure every year.
