The Greater San Fernando Valley Chamber of Commerce is pleased to present the 2023 State of the Valley luncheon on Thursday, September 7, 2023.  State of the Valley is the annual gathering and panel discussion by Los Angeles City Councilmembers covering the San Fernando Valley area.

“State of the Valley serves as an opportunity for the Valley business community to hear directly from leaders about issues that matter to us,” said Chamber CEO Nancy Hoffman Vanyek. “This event has always served as a platform for a frank discussion with our elected officials who can affect the change businesses need.” Topics discussed will include future economic development, residential and commercial development, transportation and the changing epicenter for the Valley, and more.

Alex Cohen, host of Inside the Issues on Spectrum News One, will return as the program’s moderator. The six Los Angeles City Councilmembers are Paul Krekorian, Council District 2; Bob Blumenfield, Council District 3; Nithya Raman, Council District 4; Imelda Padilla, Council District 6; Monica Rodriguez, Council District 7; and John Lee, Council District 12.
