Celebrations took place in Paris this week, beginning a year of activities to mark 100 years of the International Chamber of Commerce. Welcome remarks by ICC Secretary General John W.H. Denton AO. 

 

During the Summit ICC issued a business declaration on behalf of 45 million companies worldwide. The Declaration sets out a vision to shape the future of global business for the next century, mirroring the declaration issued 100 years ago by ICC’s “Merchant of Peace” founders. It sets out guiding principles for ICC as a purpose driven international organisation, working with renewed purpose to make business work for everyone, every day, everywhere.

 

By way of the declaration, ICC commits to using the full extent of its resources and global network to tackle 21st century challenges, including working to preserve and modernise the global trading system and mobilizing business to keep the global temperature increase below 1.5 degrees Celsius.
