Chamber News

In response to Glacier Media’s announcement of the planned closure of the TriCity News in May of this year, Leslie Courchesne, CEO of the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce released the following statement:

“As a longstanding member, partner and supporter of the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce, the TriCity News has been a champion for local businesses, helping amplify their voices and highlight the incredible work being done in our region. Their commitment to high-quality, community-focused journalism will be deeply missed.

From sizzling street eats to deals on decadent desserts and craft brews, Taste of the Tri-Cities is your ticket to discovering the most delectable food in Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, and Port Moody. Feb. 15 – March 15 at participating locations.

Whether it’s a cozy date night, catching up with friends, or indulging in a little solo dining therapy, there’s no better way to beat the cold than sinking into a warm restaurant with incredible food.

The Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce is set to celebrate Ahyoung Baek as the 2025 Chamber Member of the Year at its Business Excellence Awards gala on April 5. Baek is the Chef-Owner of Coquitlam’s Pasta Polo restaurant.

“I believe in the power of community and women in business. As a female entrepreneur, I hope my journey can inspire other women to follow their passions, take risks, and make their mark in their respective industries,” said Ahyoung Baek.

Allison J. Bran will provide the keynote at the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce International Women’s Day brunch at Vancouver Golf Club in Coquitlam on March 7. Her talk, titled Accelerate Action: Taking a Seat at the Table Without Permission, will challenge the traditional narratives women face around leadership, influence and success.
