Wednesday, October 8, 2025, the African American Chamber of Commerce of PA, NJ & DE (AACC) will hosted 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, reflected the enduring strength, innovation, and cultural leadership of Black entrepreneurs. It also marked 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 was AACC’s largest event of the year, dedicated to honoring Black business excellence. With more than 500 attendees, it served as Philadelphia’s premier networking experience for business owners, corporate executives, elected officials, and regional leaders. The presence of corporate allies underscored a shared commitment to diversity, inclusion, and the advancement of Black enterprise.
