Sobre means "on top of," whereas cerca de means "close to" or "nearby." I'm not sure about acerca de. Was that a typo?

not 'cerca', but acerca de. 'sobre de' means 'about'. - Jack-OBrien, Oct 11, 2011
Wll, wait until you discover that 'sobre' also means 'envelope' :~) - Jack-OBrien, Oct 11, 2011

Or simply "de"?

Tenemos que hablar de negocios.

Tenemos que hablar sobre negocios.

Tenemos que hablar acerca de negocios.

¿Cuál es la diferencia?
