Joe Catrambone - President's Report

The Chamber's B2B Expo Was a Huge Success!

Joe Catrambone, President/CEO
Stuart/Martin County Chamber of Commerce

In accordance with our by-laws our 2024-25 “Governance Committee” met to formulate a slate of Officers & Directors to serve on our Board of Directors for FY25/26. The committee was made up of past chamber chairs: Tony Barletta, Michael Dadko, Rob Gluckman, Lisa Satur and Kelly Johnson. They’ve presented me with a slate of Officers & Directors for FY 25-26. They will be released shortly.

We are pleased to announce our B2B Business Expo held Wednesday July 16, 2025, was a resounding success. Congratulations and thank you to our Events Coordinator Debbi Greer and our all-star staff for the success. As an aside, I mentioned to staff that it was the first time I could remember not a single complaint regarding the show. Of course, none of it would be  possible without our major sponsors Costco Wholesale Corporation, C&W Technologies and LIVE Hearty, and media sponsor WPBF-25 News. Other sponsors were HBK CPAs & Consultants, MIDFLORIDA Credit Union, Ampersand Graphics, PhotoGraphics, Paramount Tax & Accounting CPAS, LEVEL 4 Telcom, BBQ Island Style, Manero’s, JAEA JA Edwards of America Solar Roofing & Solar Specialists and RIA-Recovery Insurance Adjusters.

Please mark your calendars for September 27, 2025, and plan on joining us at our Annual Installation Gala at the Marriott Hutchinson Island Beach Resort. More details will follow; however, we do have sponsorship opportunities available. Please call Angela Hoffman for additional information.
