What is ICC?
International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) is the institutional representative of more than 45 million companies in over 100 countries.
ICC was founded in the aftermath of the First World War when no world system of rules governed trade, investment, finance or commercial relations.
Without waiting for governments to fill the gap, ICC’s founders acted on their conviction that the private sector is best qualified to set global standards for business.
They called themselves “The merchants of peace.”
What is WCF?
The World Chambers Federation (WCF) is ICC’s unique and truly global forum uniting the global network of chambers and their respective business communities. As well as strengthening links among chambers, WCF also helps individual chambers become more productive.
As a non-political, non-governmental body, WCF is the backbone of the chamber community providing a platform for chamber leaders to communicate and collaborate with each other on matters of mutual interest and facilitating beneficial partnerships.
