A MESSAGE FROM BABC OC PRESIDENT

Welcome to the British American Business Council of Orange County, California. Our mission is to facilitate collaborative relationships between businesses in the United Kingdom and Orange County, promote investment in both areas, and to provide a social network for our members to develop long-lasting friendships.

Speaking as someone whose ancestors first settled in Pennsylvania in the 17^th Century and whose family has criss-crossed the Atlantic Ocean ever-since, I can personally testify to the long-lasting trade relations and unique friendship between the peoples of the United Kingdom and the United States.

BABC OC is one of 22 BABC chapters across the United States. We play a key role in promoting business, and cultural and social ties, between our two Great nations. Here in Orange County we have a thriving business community, including many British brands who are established in the local community, as well as many US companies with operations in the United Kingdom.

BABC-OC regularly organizes events that are designed to encourage useful business interactions and benefits for our members. Together with regular business events, our monthly First Thursday social events and legendary charity Annual Golf Tournament and Christmas lunch offer something for everyone who is in some way connected with both the USA and UK.

It’s so easy to get involved – just look for the next event on this website and come, join us.

Lee Evans
President of the BABC-OC
