Sarasota Chamber Announces Angie Bastian as Keynote Speaker at Annual Breakfast

By  | 

February 24, 2023 – Sarasota

The Greater Sarasota Chamber will be hosting their Annual Chamber Breakfast on Friday, March 10 from 7:30 a.m. – 9:15 a.m. at the Hyatt Regency Sarasota. Keynote speaker for the event will be Angie Bastian, Co-Founder of Angie’s BOOMCHICKAPOP. 

At the breakfast, Bastian will give a presentation on the two key components every entrepreneur should have: grit and commitment. Bastian took a kernel of an idea and popped it into one of the fastest growing brands of natural popcorn. What began with one kettle in the Bastian’s garage has grown into a beloved, empowered and spirited brand sold internationally. The accomplishments of delivering extraordinary products and growth, respecting partnerships and celebrating consumers attracted private equity investments and the sale to Conagra Brands in 2017. 

In addition, attendees will hear from Sarasota Chamber President/CEO, Heather Kasten and Board Chair, Emily Walsh of the Observer Media Group.

The program will feature a presentation of the Spirit of Sarasota Award presented by HH Staffing to a local recipient who has made a significant contribution to the development and promotion of the Sarasota area business community.

Annual Chamber Breakfast is presented by Shumaker. Additional sponsorship opportunities are still available.
