Corporate Sponsorship Program
A key factor in the ongoing success of the American Business Group of Jeddah (ABJ) is our corporate members and their participation in our annual "Corporate Sponsorship Program" drive; providing required funds to support important activities and events that would not be possible otherwise.
ABJ corporate sponsorship funds are used to support specific ABJ's activities; such as the following:
- Support ABJ's participation in the Middle East Council of American Chambers of Commerce (MECACC), an umbrella organization that represents US business, US exports, US expatriate interests across the GCC and seeks to encourage U.S. business interests in the Gulf region. To find out more please visit www.mecacc.net and learn how you can contribute to future American trade in the Middle East.
- Support for ABJ participation at Washington, D.C.'s annual "door-knock"; and event where the ABJ and other groups located in the GCC send representatives to the capitol to directly lobby U.S. policymakers on issues significant to U.S. and Saudi business interests in the Middle East
- Support for ABJ's business roundtable and networker programs operated in cooperation with the U.S. Consulate; providing a forum for ABJ members discuss current issues affecting their interests in Saudi Arabia and explore possible ways to address same concerns
- Support diverse local community services
For the ABJ to maintain an active role in local activities and international events important to our members, each year the Executive Committee petitions member companies to support some level of financial sponsorship for the current calendar year.
