The Saipan Chamber of Commerce hosted its 1st Quarter Networking Mixer on March 22, 2023 at the Naked Fish Bar and Grill with special guest speaker Dave Burger, who shared insights on tax updates and actions that he hopes will better the CNMI tax system and potentially attract investors to the island.

“Congratulations to all the winners of the trivia, thank you for supporting the Chamber, we look forward to having you at the next mixer. The mixer was a success, said executive director Kim Camacho. This was the first mixer of the year and we look forward to about three more mixers this year. Tonight’s event was filled with team building skills and effective communication, networking opportunities, and good vibes. It also allowed us to get in touch with members who aren’t able to make our monthly membership meetings and allowed for businesses to mingle with one another and share the different industries they serve.”

“Lastly, un dankalun na si yu’us ma’ase yan ghilisow to our prize sponsors Chamber members, Pacific Trading Co., MarPac Saipan, D&Q Distributors, and Naked Fish Bar and Grill,” said Camacho.
