President´s Message
The BABC is impressive! It is now the largest transatlantic business network in the world with 24 chapters in the US and Britain. In addition to exploring our web site, we encourage you to visit the "Members Benefits" section and read about the many benefits of joining us as a member. You will also find details of our upcoming business and social events in the Calendar section, and do also check out the action from some of our past gatherings in The Photos section. Indeed throughout our website you can read about the many impressive commerce and networking opportunities, as well as gala events that occur throughout the year.
Although our programs often focus on encouraging trade and investment between the United States and Britain, our chapter is very much grounded in the Orange County business community, embracing Fortune 500 companies, professional services and individual entrepreneurs. In addition, we also take pride in our collaboration with local charities. In fact, it often surprises people to learn, that a large number of our members do not hail from the British Isles at all, but join us locally to embrace the many business and social opportunities that we provide.
This year we celebrate our 20th year "in business", and our continued success and growth as a chapter depends on the level of involvement of our members. Please come to our events - volunteer to serve on our committees even - and contribute in any way you can; you'll be glad you did!
I certainly look forward to seeing you at our next event, which as always, we will celebrate in the uniquely 'British Flair' of the BABC in Orange County.
John Miller
President
