“My decision to join the Utica Chamber and The Catalyst Group was monumental in helping me dive into the local community via Chamber events, connections and their overall guidance. I would not be as acclimated in CNY as I am today, if it weren’t for the Utica Chamber and Catalyst.

– Kristine Theodorakos, Gilroy, Kernan & Gilroy

– Chris Lawrence, City of Utica
