About the Club

The American Club of Madrid is a not-for-profit organization of local business executives and professionals, both active and retired, whose primary mission is to create and carry out a program for its members which will be both interesting and rewarding to them, and at the same time enhance the good relations which exist between our host nation and the United States.

Read the letter from Ambassador Alan D. Solomont.

In support of this, we are committed to the following:

• Foster a climate within the Club and its U.S., Spanish and other nationality members that will not only enhance goodwill among the members themselves but also will capitalize on this goodwill to produce a strong and effective multinational voice — under one banner — in support of the most cordial relations between the United States, as represented by the Club, and our host Spanish nation;
• Broaden the knowledge, information and contacts of our members by providing a program steeped in areas such as Spanish-American business, current events, sports, community affairs, social and cultural activities, etc;
• Bring prestige to the Club through the quality of its membership, outstanding speakers and programs;
• Provide a program of activities for members which is in harmony with the overall business focus of the Club and will benefit the members in their own individual business and personal relationships here in Spain;
• Provide a collective voice through which the attitudes and viewpoints of members who are US citizens abroad are reflected and transmitted to our government; in essence, through continuing contacts, cooperation and dialogue with our Ambassador and his staff;
• Assume a leading role in representing the overall American community to its host nation with the collaboration and support of the US diplomatic mission, business sector and national institutions.
