Greater Rochester Chamber Legislative Breakfast
Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce is proud to host its 2026 Legislative Breakfast on Thursday, January 15, 2026. As the Voice of Business for the nine-county Greater Rochester/Finger Lakes region, we are dedicated to fostering opportunities for our members to engage with elected leaders and play an active role in shaping the future of our community.
This year's breakfast will provide a platform for members to connect with Greater Rochester's state delegates and prominent community leaders. Together, they will discuss legislative priorities that will influence the region's business climate and drive economic growth.
Be part of the conversation that shapes Greater Rochester's future!
