Join us for one of the region’s most anticipated business events of the year — the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce 138th Annual Dinner, presented by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City.
This year’s theme, KC Made, celebrates the people, ideas, and innovations that define Kansas City’s bold spirit and homegrown success. From world-class entrepreneurs and civic visionaries to championship teams and creative trailblazers, KC Made honors the powerful impact of everything built and grown right here in our region.
The evening features a lively reception, seated dinner, and an inspiring program highlighting the leadership shaping our region. You’ll hear reflections from outgoing Board Chair Charlie Shields of University Health, and a forward-looking vision from incoming Board Chair Jeff Simon of Husch Blackwell.
The celebration caps off with one of Kansas City’s most treasured traditions: the announcement of the 2025 Kansas Citian of the Year, a surprise reveal honoring those whose contributions have left a lasting mark on our community.
Reserve your seat and be part of the story KC is making.
