“The Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce hosts two Legislative Receptions each year. I always make it a priority to attend. It’s a great opportunity to catch up with both regional lawmakers and community collaborators in a casual networking atmosphere. “
-Diane Miller, University of Toledo Office of Government Relations
"The success of the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce Summer Legislative Reception stands as a testament to the power of community and collaboration, where every conversation becomes a building block for a brighter, more prosperous future."
- State Representative Haraz N. Ghanbari (R-Perrysburg); Ohio House District 75
"The National Museum of the Great Lakes has enjoyed hosting Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce's Summer Legislative Networking Breakfast for the past 3 years. It's been a wonderful way to highlight our state-of-the-art museum to an incredible group of community leaders, stakeholders and legislators. Likewise, it provides an excellent opportunity for us—and all in attendance—to further key conversations as well as spark future-building collaborations that work to propel Northwest Ohio forward."
