ABOUT THE
AMERICAN-ISRAEL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
The American-Israel Chamber of Commerce,
Southeast Region was established in 1992 as
a private, not-for profit (and non-governmental)
business organization to boost the Israeli and
Southeastern economies by helping their
companies develop business relationships with
each other and explore new market opportunities.
With over 450 members today, AICC is
headquartered in Atlanta and serves companies
from Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Israel.
AICC has earned
the reputation as one of the most successful and
effective bi-national business organizations in
the United States, delivering great value to
Israeli companies seeking U.S. market entry, to
American companies desiring entry into Israel
and entrée to her incredible technologies, or to
those looking for a powerful network to promote
their products or services.
The strength of
AICC is the expertise and networking connections
of our large and active membership. Since our
founding, we've been involved in completed
transactions valued at over $700 million,
thereby contributing to the economies of both
Israel and the Southeastern United States. Our
region has become one of the top five centers of
activity for Israeli companies in North America.
Most of the major corporations in Atlanta and
other Southeastern cities have significant
business relationships with Israeli companies.
Member
professionals volunteer their time to evaluate
the needs of Israeli companies, provide
essential market feedback, and recommend methods
to assist by opening doors to potential
partners, customers, or investors. Israeli
companies can also benefit from the Chamber's
Virtual Office program which provides them with
an American image and presence at low cost and
with high visibility.
AICC conducts
educational programs, networking events, and
business exchanges designed to stimulate
interest in American companies to do business
with Israel, offer helpful "how to" information,
and provide opportunities for business to be
explored between American and Israeli companies.
"The
American-Israel Chamber of Commerce, Southeast
Region is a founding member of the
Association of America-Israel Chambers of
Commerce & Industry (AAICCI), a national
network of similar organizations throughout the
US. Through this association, we can offer
Israeli companies access to markets and industry
expertise throughout the country."
