Montgomery, Ala. – Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM) successfully hosted its first Regional Chamber Business After Hours on Thursday, March 12, bringing together business and community leaders from across the River Region in a first-of-its-kind collaborative event.
Held inside the McGregor Hangar at MGM, the event welcomed representatives from multiple chambers and municipalities, including Montgomery, Prattville, Wetumpka, Autauga County, Macon County, Selma, and surrounding communities. The evening served as a dynamic opportunity to foster regional partnerships, strengthen economic connections, and highlight the airport’s role as a vital gateway for growth across Central Alabama.
Guests enjoyed an evening of networking, refreshments, and meaningful conversation, all set against the backdrop of the airport’s aviation environment—reinforcing MGM’s position not only as a transportation hub, but also as a connector of people, business, and opportunity.
“This was the first regional chamber business after hours, and we wanted to make this different and share this moment with those who truly make our growth possible,” said Brittney Jones-Dabney, Communications & Marketing Manager at Montgomery Regional Airport. “By bringing together partners from across the River Region, we are reinforcing that the success of MGM is directly tied to the success of our surrounding communities. When we work together, we create stronger connections, greater economic impact, and more opportunities for everyone we serve.”
The Regional Chamber Business After Hours reflects MGM’s continued commitment to community engagement and regional collaboration. By expanding participation beyond Montgomery to include neighboring cities and counties, the airport is intentionally building a broader coalition of advocates who understand the importance of supporting local air service and infrastructure.
As MGM continues to grow its air service offerings—including the upcoming nonstop service to Houston—the airport remains focused on strengthening relationships with business leaders, civic partners, and residents across the region.
Events like this serve as a reminder that when the River Region moves together, it moves further.
