The Gwinnett Chamber announces the launch of the Elevate Business Series (EBS), a rebranded and expanded version of the organization’s long-standing Small Business Series. Beginning in 2026, the program will support a wider range of small and medium-sized businesses seeking deeper insights, practical strategies, and opportunities to strengthen their operations in Gwinnett.
 
The rebrand follows several years of program growth, marked by rising attendance, broader industry representation, and a greater demand for advanced, solutions-based content. EBS builds on that momentum with more robust topics, specialized speakers, and practical takeaways designed to help businesses innovate, scale, and remain competitive.
 
“The word ‘elevate’ reflects how far this program has come and where our business community is headed,” said Megan Lesko, Senior Vice President of Membership at the Gwinnett Chamber. “We’re seeing more people, more industries, and a strong appetite for meaningful content. With EBS, we can deliver the type of insights that help businesses grow and sharpen their approach to development.”
 
Past sessions of the Chamber’s Small Business Series have featured experts in finance, workforce development, digital marketing, leadership, regulatory compliance, customer engagement, and operational efficiency. The Elevate Business Series (EBS) will continue drawing on subject-matter specialists while expanding its scope to meet the evolving needs of businesses navigating growth across multiple sectors.
 
The first EBS event is scheduled for February 24, 2026, at 11:30 a.m. in the Education Room at the Gwinnett Chamber. The program will feature Sarah Tourville, CEO of Media Frenzy, presenting strategic communications and brand positioning for growing companies.
 
The series is open to businesses in the greater Gwinnett area seeking networking, connection, and business growth opportunities. For more information on the program, please contact Candy Rodriguez, [email protected]. Additional 2026 dates and speakers will be announced in the coming weeks.
