The American Chamber of
Commerce
in the People's Republic of China (AmCham-China)
represents U.S. companies and individuals doing
business in China. AmCham-China's membership
comprises more than 2,100 individuals from more than
900 companies. It has 35 industry- and
issue-specific forums and committees, offers unique
services such as the Business Visa Program, holds a
wide range of networking and informational events,
and meets with US and Chinese officials to discuss
challenges facing US firms doing business in China.
AmCham-China’s mission is to provide a forum for
Americans engaged in business in China and to work
with Chinese and U.S. government authorities to help
foster constructive commercial relations between the
two countries. Publishing is an important part of
this mission, and the Chamber has an extensive
publishing program. They publish briefings on
regulatory changes, business conditions, news
events, coverage of AmCham-China forums, and a China
Bulletin, a magazine.
The Chamber also produces occasional analytical
policy papers on topical issues as well as two
important annual series. The first annual series is
the White Paper on American Business in China. This
includes industry-by-industry analysis, as well as
general analysis of markets, trade, regulatory
issues, and business conditions. Second is the
Business Climate Survey of member’s businesses,
published in cooperation with the American Chamber
of Commerce – Shanghai. The Survey utilizes seven
years of annual AmCham-China member survey data to
shed light on medium-term business trends that have
emerged in China. Both annual series are based on
extensive research, and are the basis for briefings
and working meetings with U.S. and China officials,
and are heavily referred to in the media.For further information, please visit
