MBA Orlando Monthly Events

 

Better in Biz Workshops

It’s important that our LGBT & Allies are not just good in business, they need to be better in business. Our Better in Biz Seminars work with LGBT & Allied business owners to provide resources and information that help them work on their business, rather than in their business.

Better in Biz Seminars are held on the 2nd & 4th Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at MBA Orlando Headquarters. There is limited seating, RSVP necessary. Free to attend for members.
Cocktails & Conversation

This free-flowing, informal cocktail hour has been a big hit and is a great time to check in with friends and business associates that you missed during the week.

Cocktails & Conversation takes place every Friday at MBA Orlando Headquarters. Free to attend. No RSVP necessary. It is recommended that you e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to check event schedule for holiday weekends.
Networking Mixers

Held on the first Wednesday of each month, the Chamber hosts its Networking Mixer at a different member business. These popular after hours allows members to network with the other LGBT & Allied business owners and professionals at Orlando’s longest running LGBT networking event.
New Member Orientation

We invite our new and renewed members to join us for our New Member Orientation on the fourth Thursday of each month. This is an opportunity to meet Board members and learn about our exciting monthly events and how they can help you grow your business connections!

Ask questions about how our chamber is involved in the community and how we can work together to help grow your business!
RED Group

The Referral Exchange Development Group (RED Group) is an initiative of MBA Orlando, designed to help local LGBT and Allied businesses grow and thrive. Category exclusivity is the key to RED Group’s success. Each business category may be represented by only one member per RED Group chapter, thereby locking direct competition out.

RED Group members close 51.4% of the referrals they receive, which has generated more than $930,000 in sales in just 18 months.
Transgender Woman's Business Council

TWBC supports transgender business professionals. This group is composed of highly successful business leaders in Central Florida whose mission is to support the transgender community, the LGBT business community and serve as role models and mentors for the region’s transgender youth.

TWBC meets on the third Thursday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at MBA Orlando Headquarters [link to map]. Free to attend. Please RSVP to President Gina Duncan by phone at 321-800-3945 or by e-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

 

MBA Orlando Annual Events

 

Pride in Business Awards Gala

Each year, there are hundreds of LGBT & Allied business owners and professionals, corporate partners and community citizens who deserve recognition for making Central Florida a more inclusive place to live and conduct business.

The inaugural PRIDE in Business Awards Gala recognizes the corporate partners, small businesses and professionals who have made incredible contributions to our LGBT business community. The most critical factor is that these nominees must have demonstrated their PRIDE in Business.
