    Prepared by the ICC commission on : Intellectual Property
    Publication date : 07/10/1999 | Document Number : 450/878

    Business leaders and experts drawn from ICC membership establish the business stance on global issues of importance for business such as intellectual property.

    Since 1922, the ICC policy in this field has been elaborated by its Commission on Intellectual and Industrial Property, which brings together leading intellectual property experts from business and private practice from all over the world. As the world business organization, ICC firmly believes that the protection of intellectual property stimulates international trade and investment, and encourages transfer of technology, which are both essential for economic growth.
