Meet Our New and Renewing Pasadena Chamber Members for October and September, Member Celebrations and More

 

The Pasadena Chamber has enjoyed the membership of many and diverse companies. We celebrate each new member and value those who renew their investment in the Chamber. 

Thank you to Bryan Muth of Pasadena Private Wealth for recruiting the most new members during the most recent Fiscal Year. Pasadena Private Wealth received a 1/2 page color ad in our annual Business Directory (valued at $2,390). 

The person or company who refers the most new members in the Fiscal Year receives a full-color, 1/2 page ad in the printed Pasadena Chamber Business Director and the Pasadena Chamber Visitors Guide (a $2.390 value). The ad will appear in the front section (editorial section) of the publication.

We are very pleased to welcome two new Leadership Circle members to the Pasadena Chamber:

BYD-RIDE and Crown Castle joined at the Bronze level and will receive benefits and sponsorship of Chamber events as part of their membership.

  • BYD-RIDE is the largest manufacturer of electric vehicles in the world with headquarters in Pasadena and a plant to build electric busses in Palmdale. 
  • Crown Castle installs broadband infrastructure in partnership with clients such as Verizon.

 

At the Pasadena Chamber we value the loyalty of our members very much and are pleased so many continue as members, some for decades and some even for a century or more.
