On Thursday, September 8, 2016 from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Embassy Suites, Anaheim South Hotel (11767 Harbor Blvd, Garden Grove, CA  92840), the Asian Business Community had collaborated for its 6th Annual Orange County Asian Business Expo.

2017 OCABE

On Tuesday, September 12, 2017 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Great Wolf Lodge Hotel (12681 Harbor Blvd, Garden Grove, CA  92840), the Asian Business Community had collaborated once again.

Orange County has one of the fastest growing Asian population and businesses in the country.  The Asian businesses are no longer the small “mom and pop” stores but leaders and innovators in various industries, reshaping the mainstream economy, locally and internationally!

Attendees of the Expo will have a “once-in-a-year” opportunity to network, face-to-face, with vast array of Asian businesses and learn more about each other in one setting.  Each of the booth sponsors would be given an opportunity to market their business, via video and/or on stage.   This would be a great opportunity for anyone to gain direct access and contact with businesses that would otherwise be inaccessible and unapproachable.  Few of the participants will be coming from overseas, just to capitalize on this moment.
