On Thursday, October 29, 2026, The African American Chamber of Commerce of Pennsylvania, New Jersey & Delaware (AACC) proudly presented its 33rd Annual Dinner & Awards Ceremony, celebrating 33 years of continuity, recognizing 250 years of Black contribution to America’s economy, and looking ahead to Build What’s Next.

As our nation commemorates 250 years of history, this year’s celebration honored the generations of Black entrepreneurs, business owners, innovators, and leaders whose resilience, vision, and contributions have strengthened industries, created jobs, and expanded economic opportunity. It also celebrated the Chamber’s 33-year commitment to advancing Black enterprise and building meaningful connections that fuel regional growth and create opportunities for what comes next.

The 33rd Annual Dinner & Awards Ceremony was AACC’s premier event of the year and one of the region’s most distinguished gatherings of business, civic, and community leadership. Bringing together more than 500 business owners, corporate executives, elected officials, entrepreneurs, and strategic partners, the event served as a premier platform for networking, collaboration, and celebrating excellence across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware.

As AACC’s flagship event of the year, the celebration provided an essential platform for building meaningful relationships, fostering strategic partnerships, and creating new business opportunities. For 33 years, connections made through this event have strengthened our regional business community and continue to drive economic impact throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. As we honor that legacy, we also look forward to the businesses, ideas, relationships, and opportunities that will shape our region’s future.

Thank you for being part of this milestone celebration as we continue to Build What’s Next. We look forward to celebrating with you again in 2027!
