On Wednesday, October 8, 2025, the African American Chamber of Commerce of PA, NJ & DE (AACC) will host its 32nd Anniversary Awards Ceremony, celebrating thirty-two years of advancing and empowering Black-owned businesses throughout the region.
This year’s theme, From Resilience to Renaissance, The Black Imperative, reflects the enduring strength, innovation, and cultural leadership of Black entrepreneurs. It also marks a pivotal moment for the Chamber, which was recently honored as Chamber of the Year by the U.S. Black Chambers, Inc.—a national recognition of our impact, leadership, and commitment to economic equity.
The 32nd Anniversary Awards Ceremony is AACC’s largest event of the year, dedicated to honoring Black business excellence. With more than 500 attendees, it serves as Philadelphia’s premier networking experience for business owners, corporate executives, elected officials, and regional leaders. The presence of corporate allies underscores a shared commitment to diversity, inclusion, and the advancement of Black enterprise.
This is AACC’s flagship event of the year—an essential platform for building meaningful relationships and unlocking new business opportunities. Over the years, connections made at this ceremony have led to thousands of collaborations that continue to shape the regional economy.
We invite you to join us in celebrating this milestone and in shaping the future of Black business leadership.
