Young Professionals 

SACC-CO YP is a group specifically for the young professionals within SACC-CO. Our focus is to attract younger members through age-relevant events and the opportunity to build stronger networks with likeminded people in more informal settings. SACC-CO YP is primarily for adults between the ages 21  30 but will also offer events where people of all ages are welcome.

We are always looking for people to get involved, whether it is by coming to our events, joining the young professionals committee or by simply messaging us about ideas that you may have.

Marketing and Communication

The SACC-CO Marketing & Communications Committee works closely with the other committees as well as the Board in order to build awareness of the organization and its events. This committee leverages a variety of outlets, including the SACC-CO website and social media, to reach and promote current and prospective members about the Swedish business community in Colorado, vice versa, and beyond.

We welcome new ideas for engaging with the community or expanding our reach in other ways. Please contact us with any thoughts or suggestions you have, and/or to join our team!

Trainee

Trainees are a crucial key force for SACC-CO to grow and increase value added for our members on both sides of the Atlantic ocean. This ability is one of the key components in our vision to increase trade, commerce and investments between Sweden and Colorado, and seeking to increase general knowledge about our regions. The Trainee Committee’s work includes identifying, interviewing and engaging candidates, for SACC-CO as well as corporations within our network.
