Chambers of commerce from all regions of the world must align their efforts to maximise their impact and shape solutions for global economic and social challenges, H.E. Hamad Buamim, Chairman of the ICC World Chambers Federation and President & CEO of Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry told chamber leaders and officials at the 11th World Chambers Congress (WCC) on Wednesday (June 12).
During his keynote speech at the opening ceremony of WCC 2019 in Rio de Janeiro, the world’s largest gathering of chambers of commerce, H.E. Buamim called on chambers to do their part to remove barriers to global trade, adopt Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies and facilitate public-private sector cooperation in an effort to address existing challenges and trends such as climate changes, digital disruption, migration, protectionism, economic reforms and societal shifts.
“Chambers of commerce must remain ahead of the curve to ensure that they remain a vital support to businesses, helping them in turn to shape solutions to our global economic and social challenges. Collaboration is key to our shared future. Collaboration among chambers, collaboration between the private sector and governments, collaboration among nations,” said H.E. Buamim.
Established in 1965, the Dubai Chamber of Commerce & Industry is a non-profit public entity, whose mission is to represent, support and protect the interests of the business community in Dubai by creating a favourable business environment, supporting the development of business, and by promoting Dubai as an international business hub.
