2024
Founded in 1978, CPAmerica is one of the oldest and largest associations of independent CPA firms in the United States. It includes more than 90 firms in 45 states with more than 870 partners and 5,500 professionals. Members vary in size from $5 million to over $140 million in revenues averaging $14.8 million with total revenues exceeding $1.5 billion. CPAmerica is uniquely positioned as a member of Crowe Global, the 8th largest international accounting firm network. CPAmerica members are not members of the network, but they enjoy access to international expertise in more than 145 countries and cross border referrals while not subject to the compliance requirements of a network. As a CPAmerica sponsor, you gain access to 90+ highcaliber, independent accounting firms across the United States. This is an exclusive group, strategically selected based on their desire to remain independent while also being committed to improving their knowledge and developing the ability to grow through collaboration and sharing best practices with other CPAmerica member firms and industry leaders. Your products and services will be top-of-mind as you develop long-lasting relationships with managing partners, and partners who specialize in tax, A&A and industry niches. You will also have the opportunity to become a trusted resource for mid-management and upand-coming professionals who are working their way into leadership positions within the firm.
Where collaboration means business
