Attendee Profile
With more than 1,100 member chambers, ACCE represents the leading business organizations in 73 of the top 75 metro areas in the United States, as well as in many smaller communities throughout North America. The combined budgets of ACCE members exceed $1 billion.
For many ACCE sponsors and exhibitors, it's not just the chambers that are a key market. It's the chambers' members.
ACCE-member chambers represent:
- 1.2 million organizations (mostly small and medium-sized businesses)
- Nearly 3 million executives
- 70 million employees
Chamber members are considered by the public to be quality businesses. The Schapiro Group, an Atlanta-based marketing consulting firm, found that those who believed a firm to be a chamber member were:
- 63 percent more likely to want to buy from it
- 51 percent more likely to be highly aware of it
- 57 percent more likely to think highly of its local reputation
Chambers of commerce are the best source of locally-involved trusted businesses that come from a wide variety of fields. The ACCE convention is the single best way to reach chambers of commerce. More than 800 chamber CEOs, CFOs and management staff attend ACCE's annual convention to explore the latest issues impacting the businesses and communities they represent.
