The World Chambers Congress, co-organised by the International Chamber of Commerce, its World Chambers Federation, and the Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, unites global leaders to drive change through dialogue and cooperation.
The World Chambers Congress is the largest and only international forum that enables chamber leaders and professionals to share best practices, exchange insights, develop networks, address the latest business issues affecting their communities, and learn about new areas of innovation from chambers around the world.
Inspired by this year's theme "Business, chambers, government: Partners for prosperity", the 14th edition will explore how fostering collaboration among businesses, chambers of commerce, and governments can drive economic growth and prosperity.
Uniting more than 1,000 business, chamber and political leaders from +100 countries, the Congress is an ideal platform to connect public and private sector voices. Participants will also discuss the potential that mega trends in our economic landscape present and how we can leverage them for societal gain.
The programme will be announced shortly on the official event website.
Speakers will be announced shortly on the official event website.
