Contact with the business community

摘要

Engagement with the business community increased significantly in 2016. In May, the WTO facilitated a meeting of business leaders at the WTO's headquarters at the request of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and the B20, the business arm of the G20. The event was held as part of the WTO's "Trade Dialogues" initiative, which aims to give stakeholders, including the business community, an opportunity to discuss trade concerns. A follow-up event was held at the WTO's Public Forum, which attracted a large number of private sector representatives.
