The Belleville Area Chamber of Commerce has enlisted Moody Brews as the July host for its recurring 1st Thursdays Networking Series, an event run in partnership with HealthMarkets.

Why the timing stands out

Chambers across the Belleville region continue to schedule regular after-hours and morning meetups even as national economic signals remain mixed, giving owners a direct way to exchange leads without travel to larger hubs. These gatherings occur alongside separate programs such as the Greater Belleville Chamber of Commerce’s Business After Hours sessions with Hospice of Southern IL and Coffee Cup Connections at Big Brothers Big Sisters.

Young Professionals groups add another layer by organizing monthly lunches, happy hours and volunteer slots that keep newer business operators inside the same circles.

Concrete dates and venues on the calendar

The 1st Thursdays series meets on the first Thursday of each month, with the July 2 edition held at Moody Brews. In Ontario, the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce has already posted Quinte Business Week for October 15-19 2026, including workshops in Belleville and a Mega Mingle at CAA Arena. The Greater Belleville Chamber calendar lists more than three dozen current listings, among them the Leadership Belleville Committee Meeting scheduled for July 15 2026.

Event pages on chamber sites and the City of Belleville CivicEngage portal at belleville.net/Calendar.aspx allow owners to filter by date and topic before committing time.

Owners who want to participate can check the Belleville Area Chamber of Commerce listings or the Quinte West Chamber site for the next open slot and register directly through those portals.
