I have only one question for you. What’s keeping you up at night? I’d love to chat about it and explore the ways the Kelowna Chamber could help accelerate your business success. I am here anytime you want to talk about the benefits of belonging to the largest and most influential business organization outside of Metro Vancouver.

Mangla Bansal
Business Development Specialist
My name is Mangla but please call me “M” (as 007-esque as my name). I joined the Kelowna Chamber in February 2023 as Business Development Specialist and I’m excited to serve our local business community. In my previous professional life, I was a film and television producer/director (18+ years) and then became a tech entrepreneur and launched an app in 2020. Aside from my passion for helping small businesses accelerate their success through membership in the Chamber, I spend the remainder of my time, enjoying outdoor activities in our beautiful city with her loved ones. I am also fur-mom to Pedro, KCC’s newest puppy office greeter.
