Be Part of Montgomery County’s Premier Health, Wellness & Community Experience

Thrive Together is more than an event it is a celebration of the organizations, businesses, and community partners that help Montgomery County thrive.

Presented by the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce, Thrive Together brings together healthcare providers, businesses, wellness organizations, nonprofits, community leaders, and local partners for an engaging experience at the unique setting of Elmwood Park Zoo.

This is your opportunity to put your organization in front of an engaged community audience, share your story, strengthen relationships, and connect with the people who live, work, and invest in Montgomery County.

This is not a traditional expo. Thrive Together is designed around meaningful conversations, discovery, and connection.

Your organization will be part of an experience where attendees are not simply walking by booths they are discovering the resources, services, and organizations that make our community stronger.

By becoming a Featured Business Partner or Sponsor, your organization becomes part of those discoveries.

You will:

✔ Showcase your organization at one of Montgomery County’s most unique venues
✔ Connect with engaged community members and local leaders
✔ Build meaningful relationships with fellow Chamber partners and sponsors
✔ Increase visibility before, during, and after the event
✔ Align your brand with a signature Chamber experience focused on connection and community

Exclusive Featured Partner & Sponsor Reception

6:30 PM – 7:30 PM

The showcase creates connections. The reception strengthens them.

Following Thrive Together, Featured Business Partners and Sponsors are invited to remain for an exclusive reception designed to continue conversations, celebrate partnerships, and create additional networking opportunities.

This is a unique opportunity to connect beyond the showcase with fellow business leaders, sponsors, community partners, and local decision-makers in a more relaxed setting.

Because some of the most valuable relationships begin after the event.
