Through its international work, the Chamber drives the development of global policies that boost the economy through efficient cross-border commerce and robust international business, political, and cultural relationships. The Chamber supports the international needs of companies and organizations through the region and relies on its committees to consider emerging concerns, ratify policy positions, and inform and educate the private and public sector on issues critical to the binational business community. Policy actions adopted by committees are recommended to the Board of Directors and become the basis of the Chamber’s on-going advocacy efforts.

Through participation in the Chamber committees, members have an active voice in the organization’s decision-making process. Among other benefits, participating in the Chamber’s International Business Affairs Committee and/or one of the Chamber’s Public Policy Committees provides members with:

• Ability to participate in events, workshops, and lobbying trips hosted by the Chamber
• Help shape the Chamber’s advocacy efforts to grow our binational economy and create jobs
• Access to discussions with elected officials and government agency leaders
• Become team leaders at key IBA meetings in the Washington D.C. or Mexico delegation annual trade missions

If you are interested in serving on the International Business Affairs Committee, please contact the Chamber’s Director of International Business Affairs, Kenia Zamarripa, at kzamarripa@sdchamber.org or (619)544-1316.
