Members of a certain level are offered the opportunity to showcase their products/services to a selected sector-specific audience during a road show to locations in Brazil or the states in which BACC-SE serves in the southeastern USA.

The Chamber hosts regular meet and greet events which are suitable opportunities to network with others in the Brazilian-American business community in a variety of settings like executive luncheons, seminars, and special events which are designed to exchange information and expertise with leading companies engaged in U.S.-Brazil business relations.
