Due to the ongoing global health crisis, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), its World Chambers Federation (WCF) and Dubai Chamber of Commerce & Industry (DCCI) have taken the decision to postpone the 12th World Chambers Congress to 23-25 November 2021.

This decision was made to:

• Ensure the health and safety of our employees, delegates, speakers and partners, which are our number one priority.

• Anticipate that many of you will not be in a position to travel due to ongoing restrictive measures. The Congress has always been an inclusive gathering of the global chamber network. It is through this diversity and scope that our event has become the success it is today. That is why we want to give chambers, their staff and their communities the necessary time they need to adjust and recover.

• Allow the #12WCC to coincide with Expo 2020 Dubai — the upcoming edition of the World Expo — which has also been postponed to 1 October 2021 - 31 March 2022.

While this is not business as usual, we are embracing change and pioneering new ways to solve challenges with bold solutions to create an unforgettable #12WCC for you.

Our event theme — Generation Next: Chambers 4.0 — remains unchanged, becoming more relevant than ever. The #12WCC is set to highlight how new technologies are transforming business and reshaping the future of international trade, as well as examine the evolving and essential role of chambers in this area of disruption.

We look forward to welcoming you in Dubai in November 2021.

Best regards,

The Congress Team
