(SCC) — The Saipan Chamber of Commerce is pleased to share additional details for the 2025 Business Person of the Year & Board of Directors Installation Gala. This signature event will take place on Saturday, Jan. 31, 2026, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Kensington Hall, Kensington Hotel.
As our largest annual fundraiser, the gala plays a vital role in supporting the Chamber’s year-round initiatives, including our annual scholarship program, professional development workshops, small business lobbying & support efforts, and other programs that enrich our membership and the broader business community.
This year’s gala will honor past BPOY recipients, recognize this year’s BPOY recipient, as well as the Chamber’s BOD installation. To further celebrate business excellence we have a segment called Chamber Awards, traditionally, we’ve had Chamber Member of the Year, Small Business of the Year, and Non-profit of the Year. Over the years we’ve introduced other smaller category awards to celebrate business excellence in the CNMI. More details regarding the chamber awards are forthcoming.
Award nominees are selected by members of the Saipan Chamber of Commerce and may include both Chamber members and non-members. Final award recipients will be determined by a third-party auditor and chamber member, Burger, Comer & Associates and announced at the gala.
“As a Chamber of Commerce, it has always been our mission to bring the business community together as one and in meaningful ways. Our annual BPOY and BOD installation gala is more than a celebration, it is a reflection of resilience, innovation, and leadership that drive our local economy forward. For many years, this event has served as a platform to honor those who go above and beyond in service to our community and to formally welcome the leaders who will help guide our Chamber into the future. It is a night dedicated to unity, recognition, and the shared commitment to building a stronger business community together,” said executive director, Kimm Camacho.
