Selecting the host

Chambers from around the world have expressed interest in hosting the Congress up to the year 2021! WCF has developed a guide to help chambers better understand the roles and responsibilities of co-hosting the Congress. The guide provides background information into the steps that need to be taken and details to include in your candidacy bid. Selection of the host chamber and venue is made three years prior to the event and chambers are encouraged to submit their bids well in advance. This allows your chamber adequate time to generate local and national support from chambers, governments, and companies.

2015 Europe
2017 Asia
2019 Americas
2021 Africa and Middle East
