Join us for an evening to reflect on the 2025 legislative session! 

NMCC's FOCUS Awards provide members and legislators with a chance to celebrate wins for New Mexico's business community and network with peers! We will debrief chamber members on the 2025 legislative session during a cocktail reception at Hotel Andaluz in downtown Albuquerque. We will also award state legislators who championed pieces of legislation that aligned with our policy priorities. 

We are proud to honor the legislators who advocate on behalf of the business community and our vision for New Mexico. We hope you will join us!
