Organizations
Kemarra is active in a number of
organizations here in the Bay Area that also have an international
scope.
They provide networking opportunities and a range of seminars that
keep
us in touch with the business community and new technology developments
in our specialist sectors.
In addition we recommend some cultural
organizations here in San Francisco
which offer a variety of interesting programs,
The
San Francisco Chamber of Commerce - Where smart business starts.
The Chamber hosts a large number of business networking groups and
events where members can present themselves to their peers and broader
community. The Chamber is also an active
lobbyist at the City and State level on issues that promote a healthy
business environment and community in San Francisco.
Oakland is a
major import and export center serving California and the
Western United States, and along with the broader East Bay, is a
major contributor to the economic profile of the region.
The
Oakland Chamber is an important point of connection and
support
for
both
small and large businesses and the community as a whole.
The
British-American Chamber of Commerce provides a great link between
the British community and our American hosts. The
Chamber works closely with the UK Consulate and
trade organizations to provide a range of business events that increase
British-American ties, and hosts a number of social events where
our American friends can discover why a cricket match takes five
days
and what exactly goes into a Haggis.
The
Software Development Forum has recently celebrated its 20th anniversary
as the preeminent local government organization supporting the
