In conjunction with the City of Beverly Hills, the Chamber organizes annual trips to New York City to attract new business to Beverly Hills. The trip encompasses visits to some of New York’s finest restaurants, retailers, and professional organizations, to encourage their businesses to open a branch in the City of Beverly Hills to lend further prestige and renown for their businesses. The Chamber and City of Beverly Hills have established deep and productive relationships with businesses in Manhattan through this mission.

Under the auspices of the City of Beverly Hills, the Chamber organizes a series of meetings between the Mayor of Beverly Hills and businesses to determine how the businesses are doing, what challenges they are facing, and what the City and Chamber can do to help. These meetings have helped to identify solutions for making the City of Beverly Hills an even greater place to do business.

The Broker’s Roundtable bi-annual meeting provides an opportunity for the leading commercial brokers and senior officials from the City to gather and share information about new developments in the City’s commercial landscape and leasing opportunities.
