1 O RIGIN AND F UTURE Founded in 1993 in St. Louis by a group of Chinese and American businessmen with initial funding from its Directors and several major corporations, among them Prescott S. Bush, Jr., who served as Chairman through its first ten years, United States of America-China Chamber of Commerce has evolved and grown into a well recognized non-profit, bi-national membership organization with three offices in the U.S. and representatives in Beijing and Shanghai, China. With a membership of over 150 corporations and professionals, USCCC has recently broadened its reach through the additions of new members as well as participation of companies and professionals from various parts of the world. M ISSION United States of America-China Chamber of Commerce is a not-for-profit, bi-national membership organization dedicated to developing increased U.S.-China trade and investment activities by assisting American and Chinese companies, professionals and the general public to better understand the business environment and cultural traditions relevant to successfully doing business in both countries. USCCC conducts a wide range of activities: such as seminars, conferences, workshops, executive briefings, trade missions and networking events. These activities facilitate a deeper understanding of the technological, economic, financial, demographic and cultural trends that are critical for successful economic development between the U.S. and China. USCCC also aids both American and Chinese companies in locating business partners for trade and investments, and provides important governmental and business introductions for companies of all sizes in the U.S. and in China.

PPORTUNITIES
Believing that most successful business ventures are built on trust and trust can only be developed through guanxi or relationship, United States of America-China Chamber of Commerce strives to facilitate the development of this important element for both US and Chinese companies. Throughout the years, the Chamber has organized a series of networking receptions, investment forums, trade missions and other related activities. Perhaps among all those things that the USCCC has done, its most significant contribution is, through its Board of Directors and a network of contacts, providing its members and the business communities in both countries with direct access to business leaders and government officials who are essential in their business development efforts. His Excellency, Premier Zhu Rongji and Prescott Bush, Chairman (retired) of USCCC President George Bush, Siva Yam, President of USCCC and Prescott Bush Siva Yam and Ambassador John D. Negroponte exchanged ideas The Honorable Ren Wenyan, Vice Chairman of Peoples Congress in Shanghai and President of Shanghai Industry and Commerce Federation discussed with Siva Yam how the two organizations could work together U NITED S TATES OF A MERICA
