SACC-USA offers a wide range of programs and services designed to help our members grow their business, increase brands visibility, and access our extensive transatlantic business network.

Joining a chamber of commerce means becoming part of a community collaborating on trade and business. What that looks like in practice depends on who you are.  For a start-up, it's a valuable opportunity to gain support and visibility; for a growing company it's a platform for business development and strategic connections; for an established company, it often means maintaining institutional relationships, passing down knowledge, and creating opportunities. Whatever your reason for joining may be, being part of a larger network brings lasting value and a sense of purpose..

SACC-USA connects over 1,000 members across 22 chambers, offering unmatched access to a transatlantic business network. Through curated programs, trade delegations, advocacy, and premier events like Executive Forum, SACC Summit, and Transatlantic Day, members gain visibility, partnerships, and influence. With deep regional presence and national reach, SACC-USA helps companies navigate the U.S. market and thrive regardless of industries.
