About Southwest China Chapter

While Southwest China is centered around Sichuan, the region officially includes Chongqing, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Tibet. Sichuan province, with its significant contributions to China’s economy, population, resources, science, and education, offers unique advantages for collaboration with the United States. In terms of foreign cooperation and exchange, the US has long been a key partner for Sichuan in both investment and trade. Over the years, many leading US companies, including Intel, Dell, Chevron, and Albemarle, have established a strong presence in Sichuan.

The AmCham China Southwest Chapter was officially established on October 31, 2023, in Chengdu, under the leadership of AmCham China, headquartered in Beijing. This grand opening marks a milestone in continuing US-China economic cooperation in the Southwest region. The Southwest Chapter serves as the regional hub for daily operations, offering services and member engagement through collaborations, knowledge sharing, business development, and government relations activities.

AmCham China’s Southwest Chapter is committed to enhancing the business climate, fostering a positive community, and contributing to the success of its members in this dynamic market.
