Monthly Update from the President
Firstly — thank you.
The last month has been a big one, and it’s because of you. Between members showing up, introducing other businesses, sponsoring, hosting, and sharing what we’re doing — the Chamber is genuinely building momentum again.
A quick reminder as always: there’s no expectation that you attend every event. No pressure, no judgement. We’ll keep providing opportunities in different formats — in-person, casual, structured — and you can engage in whatever way suits your season. If you do plan to attend something, we just ask that you RSVP so we (and venues) can plan properly.
This month’s WINS
- Pittwater Business launch success: We had 50 people attend the Pittwater Business launch in Warriewood and Newport— a fantastic turnout and a strong signal that local businesses want connection, collaboration and practical support. Thank you to everyone who came along and helped make it happen.
- 120+ members (and growing): We’re now at over 120 members, which is an incredible foundation for a volunteer-run Chamber — and it means a stronger collective voice for local business.
- 15 sponsors backing local business: A huge thank you to our 15 sponsors who help make the Chamber’s work possible. If you can, please support them where you can — and mention the Chamber when you do.

And if you’re a business owner who’d like to host a Chamber event (breakfast, webinar, workshop, evening drinks, behind-the-scenes — anything that suits your space and audience), reply and let us know. We’d love to feature more member-hosted events.
Help us grow the network (warm intros matter)
If you know a great local business owner who’d benefit from being part of a supportive network (and being found through our directory), please introduce them to us or forward this update on. Every warm intro makes a difference.
Member Jungle app — stay in the loop
A quick reminder: you can stay across Chamber updates, events and membership details via the Member Jungle app. If you have any trouble accessing your account, reply and we’ll help you get set up.
Thanks again for being part of something local — we’re building a stronger business community together.
Cheers, Kylie
President, Mona Vale Chamber of Commerce
