About Us:

The Croatian-American Chamber of Commerce was informally established in 1998 in New York at the initiative of a group of Croatian business people who recognized the need for a common business organization. In August 2003 it was formally incorporated as a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization which finances its activities through membership dues, donations and service fees.

The Chamber’s goal is to bring together and link business people in Croatia and the United States for the purpose of formulating joint business ties and promoting bilateral business relationships between the two countries. The Chamber’s offices are located in New York.

The Croatian-American Chamber of Commerce promotes the interests of its members who consist of Croatian professionals, small business owners, large business corporations, and international corporations. The Chamber provides its members with business information, assistance in establishing business contacts and advisory services. It also organizes seminars and lectures on various current topics related to the economy, law, business administration, communications and other trends, and offers programs in career development and professional exchanges.

The Chamber is an important organization not only for business people and the Croatian community, but also for Croatia, a country in transition experiencing a dynamic period of economic advancement.

In light of the importance of establishing contacts and accelerating the flow of information when establishing international business agreements, the roatian-American Chamber of Commerce actively cooperates with the German-American and Italian-American Chambers of Commerce, and draws on their lengthy experience when developing its own programs.
