Founded in 1978, CPAmerica is one of the oldest and largest associations of independent CPA firms in the United States. It includes nearly 90 firms in 45 states with more than 950 partners and 5,500 professionals. Members vary in size from $5 million to over $140 million in revenues, averaging $20.4 million with total revenues exceeding $1.83 billion.
CPAmerica is uniquely positioned as a member of Crowe Global, a large international accounting firm network. CPAmerica members are not members of the network, but they enjoy access to international expertise in more than 140 countries and cross border referrals while not subject to the compliance requirements of a network.
As a CPAmerica sponsor, you gain access to nearly 90 high-caliber, 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.
Members gather throughout the year to share firm successes, collaborate and support the professional relationships they’ve built. CPAmerica events and meetings are held in popular cities across the country, providing members with inspiration to carry out the common goal of continuous improvement.
