A LETTER FROM OUR CEO
What will Austin look like in 2032?
At the Greater Austin Asian Chamber of Commerce, we envision a future in which Austin is truly global while always staying weird. Will our city also be more connected? More sustainable? Greener? More equitable?
2022 is the ten-year anniversary of the Greater Austin Asian Chamber of Commerce. We are using this moment as an opportunity not only to look back and celebrate the incredible accomplishments of our Chamber and the Asian business community in Central Texas over the past decade, but especially as a chance to look ahead. The futuristic theme for this year’s Ovation gala reflects this aspirational forward focus.
Even with ten years behind us, in some ways we’re just getting started. Our internationally-focused efforts to #MakeAustinGlobal will extend and shape Austin’s connections to the world. Our work in cultivating the Central Texas business landscape will see regional economic equity become more visible across our area. Our focus on supporting our members and delivering top-notch programs in education, advocacy, and connection will deepen and grow.
Explore Austin’s future with us! The Ovation gala or, as I like to call it, “The best Asian party in town!” is our collective chance to dress our best and show the city our proudest face. The event also makes possible all the critical year-round work of the GAACC. Consider sponsoring the Ovation gala and join our effort. We look forward to seeing you on December 3rd!
