We're excited to launch our new Mugs & Mentors series - an informal coffee conversation designed to connect Aiken’s emerging professionals with established business and community leaders. It’s a welcoming space to ask leadership questions, get career advice, and build meaningful connections across generations. And hey—mid-career professionals are welcome too. Because let’s be honest: the best leaders never stop looking for a mentor.

Date & time: 06/19/2026 , 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Location: Aiken Chamber of Commerce
121 Richland Ave E., Aiken, SC 29801

If you have a young professional on your team or network—or someone rising into leadership—please encourage them to attend. We’d love to see them there!
