Our 2019 Virtual African American Business Expo continues to build on our campaign to Retool, Refocus, and Rebuild Black Business in New York State. As New York State’s largest African American Chamber of Commerce the our chamber (LIAACC) has raised the bar for what it means to be a black chamber in New York State.

As part of our campaign to Retool, Refocus and Rebuild Black Businesses in New York State our chamber has partnered with Customers Bank to get qualified businesses to apply for the 2nd Round of PPP Loans. Subscribe https://www.youtube.com/embed/pDN49-vXFig

“We know our road to recovery as a business community would be much more difficult without establishing partnerships such as the one we have embarked upon with Customers Bank,” added Andrews. “Together, we are looking forward to helping many more small businesses than either organization could achieve on their own.”
