Who is ICC Switzerland
In Brief
ICC Switzerland is the voice of Swiss business in the International Chamber of Commerce, where it represents the interests of its member companies and organizations based in Switzerland. Its office is at economiesuisse, the Swiss Business Federation. Members include international trading companies in particular, international or specialized law firms, chambers of commerce as well as major economic associations.
ICC Switzerland was founded in 1922 by economiesuisse (formerly Vorort), the Swiss Bankers Association and the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in France as one of the first ICC national committees.
