APACC

About Us

Mission Statement: To facilitate business relationships, promote economic advancement, and remove barriers by fostering strong business partnerships across communities, including, without limitations, those with roots in Asian heritage.

Our Commitment: Rooted in the experiences of the Asian American and Pacific Islander business community, APACC approaches its work with cultural insight, economic focus, and a deep understanding of the diverse communities we serve. While our work spans industries and partnerships across all backgrounds, we are shaped by a legacy of entrepreneurship, perseverance, and cross-cultural connection. We honor where we come from as we build toward a more connected and prosperous future.

Who We Are: Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Southeast Michigan, APACC is a nonprofit business organization committed to advancing economic growth, business success, and professional development across industries. We connect corporations, entrepreneurs, small business owners, and professionals to strategic resources and meaningful relationships that help drive innovation and strengthen Michigan’s economic landscape.

In 2024, APACC expanded its impact with the launch of the APACC Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on education, technical assistance, and entrepreneurial support. Together, this dual structure enables APACC to deliver both business advocacy and charitable programming that foster long-term economic opportunity for communities throughout Michigan and beyond.
