About Us
We connect California’s small businesses to capital, contracts, workforce resources, and policy solutions that drive opportunity statewide.
Helping Businesses Start, Sustain, and Grow.
What We Do
Founded in 2010, the California Asian Pacific Chamber of Commerce (CalAsian Chamber) works directly with entrepreneurs across California to understand real business challenges and connect them to practical solutions.
Through hands-on support, policy advocacy, and statewide partnerships, we help businesses access capital, compete for contracts, build their workforce, and adapt to changing markets.
How Our Work Creates Statewide Impact
The challenges we see working directly with businesses inform how we shape policy, investment, and programs across California.
By translating real business experience into data and solutions, we help ensure that statewide decisions reflect what businesses need to operate, hire, and grow.
