2016-2017 Year in Review

June 27, 2017

Hello AMA Minnesota!

As our 2016-2017 year and my term as chapter President both come to a close, I want to thank you all for an amazing year. I’ve had the privilege to work with a wonderful Board of Directors and many volunteers that have helped push our chapter onward and upward.

This past year we’ve increased our board from six directors to 15, allowing us to give back to the chapter in a much bigger way. We added more membership networking opportunities, free programming for members, and more programs to our calendar. We continued to host many of our most popular programs including the annual Ad Bowl and Leadership Panel; and added new programs to ensure that we’re continuing to add value and opportunities for every type of marketer in Minnesota.

We’re also very proud of the work we’ve done on the collegiate level. We’ve successfully connected our professional chapter to collegiate AMA chapters around the state, and added new ones in the past year. We also had the pleasure of providing financial grants to three collegiate AMA chapters right here in Minnesota.

I am extremely thankful for this opportunity to serve as chapter President and am excited to see how the AMA MN evolves and continues to be the premier association for marketers in Minnesota. Thank you to all our members for your continued support and dedication to making our chapter the success that it is. I look forward to connecting you with all at future AMA MN events.

Many thanks,

Tony Rivera

2016-2017 President, AMA Minnesota
