COFACC Chamber Participation

Building a National Marketplace Together

IAABE 2026 invites COFACC-affiliated chambers across the United States to participate in a national initiative designed to elevate Filipino American businesses and strengthen economic collaboration across our chamber network.

Participating chambers will have the opportunity to showcase their local business communities, connect members with international trade delegations, investors, and U.S. business leaders, and contribute to building a national marketplace for Filipino American entrepreneurship.

What Participating Chambers Receive

  • One complimentary exhibit table at IAABE 2026
  • Opportunity to promote chamber programs and member businesses
  • Hospitality support, including complimentary lunch boxes for two days
  • National exposure through participation in the IAABE marketplace and networking programs

 

What Participating Chambers Are Asked to Do

To support the success of IAABE 2026, chambers are encouraged to:

  • Promote IAABE 2026 through chamber websites, email announcements, and social media
  • Encourage members to participate as exhibitors, sponsors, or delegates
  • Recruit local businesses within the chamber to exhibit at the expo
  • Introduce potential sponsors from their business network
  • Coordinate delegations of chamber members to attend the event
  • Recommend industry leaders from their chamber for panel discussions or speaking opportunities
Additional Opportunities for Chambers

Participating chambers may also benefit from the IAABE Chamber Referral Incentive Program, which offers:

  • 15% commission on referred sponsorships and exhibitor packages from $1,000 to $9,999

  • 10% commission on amounts above $10,000

Outstanding chamber engagement will be recognized through the IAABE Top Chamber Participation Award and a national Chamber Leaderboard, celebrating chambers that demonstrate leadership in mobilizing business participation.

Together, COFACC and its affiliated chambers are building more than an event—we are building a national marketplace where Filipino American businesses thrive and global partnerships grow.
