About the Chamber

Established in 1999, our vision is to be the catalyst for thriving economically diverse business communities.

Our Mission

Our mission to be good stewards of professional, business and economic development in the communities we serve.

Founded in 1999, the US Indian Chamber of Commerce DFW is a Dallas-Fort Worth-based 501(c)(6) organization, with a vision to be the catalyst for thriving economically diverse business communities.

We also support professional, business and economic development throughout North Texas and facilitate bi-lateral trade with India. The Chamber consists of businesses and professional members who are interested in engaging with the Indian-American professional and business community in North Texas and/or interested in bilateral trade and business between Texas and India.

It is your link to the people, programs, and resources you need to grow your business. Member businesses benefit from the Chamber’s leadership development programs, business expansion efforts, world-class speaker roundtables, and high-visibility events throughout the year.

“The DFW community has given a lot to us. And it is our duty to create a place where we can give back, help each other and the community grow.”

— RAJ MALIK, CHAIRMAN
