The Gwinnett Chamber’s Chairman’s Club is gearing up for an exclusive event known as EMBARK 2025, set to run from October 17 to October 25. This executive-level travel program will guide participants through the cultural landscapes of northern Italy and Switzerland, aimed at fostering strong connections among community leaders from Gwinnett.
The journey begins in the scenic region of Lake Garda, under the aegis of Magisnat, a life sciences company from Peachtree Corners with Italian roots. Participants will traverse Milan, Lake Como, Zermatt, and Geneva, enjoying luxury accommodations and carefully planned excursions. Key experiences include viewing Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” taking scenic boat rides on Lake Como, and touring the United Nations in Geneva, complemented by embassy briefings and cultural interactions.
EMBARK is a special series open exclusively to Chairman’s Club members, a high-profile network of regional business leaders. The trip is designed not just as a luxury experience, but as a means to access insights, shared experiences, and potential partnerships, which many attendees have credited with expanding their business networks.
“Traveling with other local professionals gave me the chance to build genuine relationships that continue to support my business today,” said Greg Cantrell of Living Stone Properties, referencing his experience in the 2023 EMBARK trip to the UAE and India. “The experience went far beyond sightseeing—it was a catalyst for business growth.”
Registration has commenced for this travel program, starting at $7,995 per person for double occupancy and $9,495 for single occupancy, exclusive of airfare. Recommended flights are provided, and participants are encouraged to book soon, as rates are expected to increase after June 9. An optional early departure on October 16 includes a pre-tour dinner and additional networking opportunities.
Those interested in this exclusive opportunity, not yet members of the Chairman’s Club, are encouraged to contact Megan Lesko, Senior Vice President of Membership, for information on joining this invitation-only community.
