Atlanta International Business Association

The AIBA was formed to support the combined interests of the international community in Atlanta, Georgia. As the home to over 60 Counsel Generals representing hundreds of international businesses and hundreds of thousands of individuals, Atlanta is a world leader. As more countries choose Atlanta for their presence in the United States, the need to bring the international communities together has never been more important. The AIBA proves to assist the many International-American chambers in bringing about cultural exchange, introductions to business leaders domestic and international, individual and personal development, continued trade relations and an environment of welcome to those relocated or visiting Atlanta.

The AIBA in Print

The AIBA, in cooperation with the many International-American Chambers in Atlanta, will provide content to over 23,000 businesses in Atlanta. This is achieved by a special feature section in the Atlanta Business Magazine titled the "Atlanta International Business Association". This section highlights the activities of International-American Chambers and may contain features by individual contributors. It showcases business and social issues that are important to the international community and assists with drawing membership to the specific chambers as well as attracting possible sponsors.

AIBA Events

International-American Chambers attract prospective members and sponsors by scheduling events that vary by topic and host a variety of different talents. As these chambers work independently to achieve a common goal it is beneficial to bring the resources together to expedite these goals. This is where the AIBA comes in. The AIBA hosts functions large and small and cover a variety of topics that are important to all businesses in Atlanta. As International-American chambers seek to serve their members and host countries, AIBA streamlines these efforts for greater impact.

Sponsorships

In order to fund AIBA, member sponsors provided by the individual International-American chambers provide support by advertising and sponsoring AIBA related marketing events. Not only does the member/sponsor receive all of the benefits from marketing with the AIBA, the chamber of their choice receives exposure in print, on the web and at all events as an event sponsor.
