June 22 , 2016 
  It has become incredibly apparent that in 2016, business is under attack. 

From O2W to the rising minimum wage, the number of initiatives aimed at making it harder-not easier- to do business in San Jose and Silicon Valley is just too much. Read our thoughts on the matter here.  





Its official! The 2016 Really Useful Book has finally arrived. Thanks to the Chamber Team for putting in the time and effort to showcase hundreds of our hardworking members. Join the team in celebrating the unveiling this Thursday at the Directory Launch Party & Mixer.
 
Last week, Strive San Jose successfully held the inaugural three-day Internship and Career Fair, placing 40+ students into paid summer internships with chamber businesses. Thank you to our partners, East Side Union High School District and Work2Future Foundation who worked hand in hand in making the days a success!
