USPAACC Midwest Small Business Collaboration

USPAACC's Midwest chapter lists an in-person Small Business Collaboration on Monday, November 2, 2026 in Chicago. The national homepage says Wells Fargo presents it. The national events calendar confirms the date and that people meet in person. It does not post a start time, a street address, or an agenda. A separate event page for this date was not up when this leaf was checked. Treat November 2 as the lock, and get the building from the chapter before you leave the Loop or ride in from Naperville.

USPAACC, the US Pan Asian American Chamber of Commerce, was founded in 1984 by Susan Au Allen, its national president and chief executive. The chamber's public work is supplier introductions, access to capital, and CelebrASIAN, a three-day procurement conference that ran June 2 to 4, 2026 at the Renaissance Dallas at Plano Legacy West. That national meeting is the clearest picture of what this organization is for. The Chicago listing does not say whether November 2 is a buyer meeting, a talk, or a reception. Do not fill that blank with a scraper's fireside-chat description.

This is right for Chicago and suburban owners who already know the chamber and can wait for a time and a room, and for supplier-diversity partners who will call before they hold the date. Skip it if you need a posted agenda this week, or a ticketed gala with a ballroom name. If you go, bring the certification or capability statement you would hand a buyer, and also be ready for a program that never asked for one. The listing does not describe a pitch contest.

Start on uspaacc.com/events and open the November 2 Midwest entry. The national office number on that site is (202) 296-5221. If the chapter has not added a time and a room by Friday, October 30, call before you drive. Wells Fargo as presenter is on the homepage. A Connection Place address on Wacker Drive shows up on event scrapers and is not on the host calendar, so do not navigate there on a scraper's word.
