Letter from the Chair

The Miami Beach Chamber is nearly 100 years old – and it is expected that within an organization of such history and stature excellence is c u l t i v a t e d . L a s t week, we had the incredible opportunity to celebrate the best of the best from our local business talent. The 2013 Champions of Business Awards Luncheon took place on January 29th at the Eden Roc Renaissance Miami Beach. With close to 400 in attendance, the event was a huge success.

This year’s event honored Past Chamber Chairman and Sudsies President, Jason Loeb, proprietor of The Forge, Shareef Malnik, and NBA sports agent, David Sugarman of Sugartime Sports, Inc. The honorees received The James McDonnell Outstanding Board of Governor Award, The Aaron B. Perry Innovation in Business Award, and the Small Business of the Year Award, respectively. The luncheon attracted both television and sports celebrities, and all who attended enjoyed the venue, the food, and, of course, the award presentations and the messages delivered by our talented honorees.

Once again, to no surprise, the Chamber put on a wonderful event to highlight stars of the local business community and dedicated Miami Beach community members. This event is just one of hundreds hosted by the Chamber each year. Of course, the Miami Beach Chamber is a great way to boost your business and get involved in the community, but what’s even more, you can take advantage of the glamour and brilliance of Miami Beach’s venues! Take the leap and experience the power of membership if you haven’t already! And for all the Chamber members, take advantage of all the fun, practical and business-building benefits that are all part of your Chamber membership! At Your Service,

Alan A. Lips
