Join us for Stories of Resilience at the 18th Annual Gem of the Valley Gala, honoring our business community.

Annually, the Chamber has brought the business community together to celebrate and honor the achievements of our region's exceptional businesses and nonprofit organizations through our annual Gem of the Valley Gala. We recognized winners in a variety of categories, from large and small business, nonprofit of the year, and entrepreneur of the year, and much more.

This year we are taking a different approach. Our business community has been immensely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and we want to shine a light on the Stories of Resilience and innovation occurring in our community.

Our Gem of the Valley Gala - Stories of Resilience will celebrate and recognize the account of survival, told by our business community. This is a chance for the Greater Spokane Valley Chamber business owners and organizations to share their challenges and successes. We will celebrate their resilience during our virtual Gala on Friday, March 12th, and across our communication channels.

Additionally, the Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce our 2020 Harry E. Nelson Citizen of the Year, and Lifetime Achievement Award recipients.

Citizen of the Year - Barry Baker, President and CEO of Baker Construction & Development, Inc.
Lifetime Achievement Award - Dr. Gene Sementi, Retired - Former Superintendent of West Valley School District
