Hispanic Chamber of Commerce,
from San Antonio TX

Gold Sponsor as of February 20, 2011

The San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is the oldest organization of its type in the United States, having been originally chartered as the Mexican Chamber of Commerce in 1929. Today, there are about 35 Hispanic chambers of commerce in Texas and about 600 across the nation.

The Mexican Chamber was organized by Don Enrique Santibañez, Consul General of Mexico in San Antonio, who became its first president. Given the deep historical and commercial ties and tensions between the U.S. and Mexico, the chamber's primary emphasis in its early years was to promote trade, policy and cultural harmony.

While the chamber's leaders forged ahead to define modern Hispanic business, the social climate of the time posed many barriers. Minorities faced discrimination in business, just as in employment, education, voting, infrastructure, access to capital and markets. These social issues necessitated that the chamber go beyond the traditional scope for chambers of commerce and into one of dual social and business advocacy.

Mission Statement

The San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is San Antonio's resource and advocate for Hispanic businesses, Hispanics in business, and provides premiere access to the Hispanic market.

Goals

• GOAL 1. Custom-tailor business development and advocacy programs to facilitate business opportunities.
• GOAL 2. Plan and execute successful special events.
• GOAL 3. Identify and recognize individuals and organizations and develop programs that inspire and foster Hispanic leadership and entrepreneurship.
• GOAL 4. Achieve 1,200 members by 2010.
• GOAL 5. Tell the Hispanic Chamber story effectively in the community.
