Black chambers convene in Austin for 15th annual conference

taaaccAUSTIN – The Texas Association of African American Chambers of Commerce (TAAACC) will host its 14th Annual Conference September 24-25, 2015 at the Marriott Austin North.

“Our theme this year – All Business All the Time – serves to highlight the urgency with which we approach our mission,” said TAAACC Chairman Christopher Herring. “Black-owned businesses deserve the concentrated focus that TAAACC provides. Though Texas has escaped the brunt of the economic downturn, African American businesses and the chambers that support them continue to need support to be competitive in this environment.”
