It was an evening of baseball, burgers and beer on July 30 for the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce’s newly created networking group of professionals under the age of 40. The young professionals met in a private luxury suite at a Trenton Thunder game for lively conversation, the exchanging of business cards and some great food and beverages.

The event was dubbed ‘Th-Under 40,’ and featured a win by the Thunder over the Altoona Curve and a give-away of Aaron Judge bobblehead dolls.

The event was spearheaded by some of the younger members of the NJ Chamber staff - Laura Hahn, director of government relations, and Victoria Ahde, corporate engagement manager.
