November is off to a strong start at the Roseville Area Chamber! From helping business owners set goals and creating opportunities for members to connect to celebrating local businesses and strengthening regional workforce partnerships, it was another full week of bringing our business community together.

 

We kicked things off Tuesday with an Entrepreneur Development Group (EDG) session led by Brian Gladden of Strategy & Innovation Institute and Marcie Shelton of The Leader’s Partner.

The group discussed setting intentional goals and making the most of the final months of 2026, giving business owners an opportunity to reflect, plan, and finish the year with purpose.

 

 

Wednesday brought our monthly Ambassador meeting, with lunch catered by Super Duper Burgers. We’re grateful for the continued commitment of our Ambassadors and the important role they play in welcoming new members, supporting Chamber programs, and helping businesses make meaningful connections.

 

Later that day, members gathered at Nexus VR & Lounge for our November Member Mixer, sponsored by Nicole Townsend of Experience Counts. We also heard from our featured nonprofit, Placer Freedom Foundation. Thank you to our hosts, sponsor, and everyone who joined us for an evening of networking and community connection!

 

 

 

 

We celebrated three members with ribbon cuttings this week: H.A. Skin Lab on Tuesday, Ethan Wade Graphics on Thursday, and Boot Barn on Friday. Congratulations to each of these businesses! We’re excited to celebrate your milestones and support your continued success in our community.

Please join us in welcoming our newest Chamber members:

• Allworth Financial
• PASCO Scientific
• The Sharing Board California

 

 

 

We also took time to recognize our new and renewing members from October, whose continued investment and involvement help make our Chamber community strong. Thank you for being part of the Roseville Area Chamber!

 

 

 

On Thursday, CEO Ananda Rochita attended and participated in the TPM® Healthcare Industry Summit, held November 4–5 in Phoenix, alongside representatives from Kaiser Permanente, Sutter Health, Sierra College, and North Far North.

Day One brought together healthcare and workforce leaders to explore innovative approaches to strengthening healthcare talent pipelines, share best practices, and collaborate through interactive breakout sessions and implementation labs. The day concluded with a Healthcare Workforce Action Lab, where participants identified key partners and resources, mapped opportunities for collaboration, and defined actionable next steps.

It was a valuable opportunity to learn from peers, share our region’s workforce development efforts, and continue building partnerships that support a strong, sustainable healthcare workforce in Placer County and beyond.

 

Thursday evening, we also had the pleasure of hosting our annual President’s Circle Reception, dedicated to celebrating and thanking our year-round event sponsors for their continued investment in the Chamber.

 

 

 

 

The evening brought together Past Presidents, valued President’s Circle sponsors, and members of our Board of Directors for connection and camaraderie.

We are incredibly grateful for the businesses whose contributions help strengthen our Chamber, support local business success, and create greater opportunities throughout the Roseville area.

A special thank-you to DNA Wine Lounge for graciously hosting our group and providing exceptional service, and to Sprinkle Me Crinkle Me for the delicious cookies.

To our President’s Circle partners: thank you for all you do for the Chamber and the business community we serve!
