ICC Secretary General joins heads of state and UN leaders for UNCTAD 60th

Representing ICC, the most inclusive business organisation in the world, Mr Denton joined heads of state and government representatives from over 30 countries for a historic “family” photo shoot ahead of UNCTAD’s Global Leaders Forum. Featuring six heads of state and government and 28 government ministers of Trade and Foreign Affairs from all world regions, the forum is expected to develop new ideas and partnerships, and to launch new initiatives aimed at accelerating progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals. Other stakeholders, including civil society representatives, leading economists, and international organisations will also participate.

ICC is a longstanding partner of UNCTAD, with collaboration spanning from efforts to facilitate investment in emerging economies to, more recently, joint actions to mitigate the spillover effects of the conflict in Ukraine. 

ICC is committed to leveraging its unique global network –- and role as the only business representative with UN Observer status – to harness the expertise of the private sector to advance sustainable development and extend prosperity and opportunity to all.
