In Mexico City, alongside @ICCMEXICO, we convened policymakers and business leaders across the Americas and the Caribbean to focus on what the region needs now: a trading system that supports growth, investment and resilience. The discussions pointed to three practical priorities: stronger digital trade corridors within the region, more accessible trade finance for #SMEs and lower compliance costs linked to rules of origin. Advancing these priorities will help businesses invest, expand and strengthen economic resilience across the Americas. Through the ICC Compact for Trade, Growth and Jobs, we will continue working with partners across the region to advance practical solutions that support today’s economy and future growth.

At #MC14, @ICCSecGen presented a Global Business Statement to @WTO Director-General @NOIweala. Backed by 236 business organisations worldwide, the message is clear. We need: ➡️ a time-bound process for WTO reform ➡️ a renewal of the Moratorium on Customs Duties on Electronic Transmissions More here: bit.ly/4tdI9Xx

At the opening of the @WTO–@iccwbo Business Forum in Yaoundé. Great to hear from @ICCSecGen John Denton, H.E. Luc Magloire Mbarga Atangana — Minister of Trade of Cameroon & MC14 Chair, and Mr Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede — Chair, Coronation Group & Access Holding. Ably moderated by @NicoleNMensa. We are living through one of the most uncertain moments for global trade in decades. But here at the WTO, we are working hard to reform the multilateral trading system. And businesses have a critical role to play — not just in calling for change, but in helping build what comes next.

What happens when digital tools suddenly become more expensive for millions of MSMEs? 🔍 For 25 years, the WTO e‑Commerce Moratorium has kept digital transmissions tariff‑free, keeping software, cloud services and apps accessible and affordable to businesses everywhere. If the Moratorium lapses, those tools become costlier overnight. For small businesses — especially in developing economies — even minor price increases can significantly slow growth, limit upgrades and weaken their ability to compete globally.

The global trading system is under pressure; MC14 is the moment to act. At the WTO–ICC Business Forum in Yaoundé, @ICCSecGen joined @wto Director-General @NOIweala and Cameroon’s Minister of Trade Luc Magloire Mbarga Atangana and Mr Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, Chairman of Coronation Group Limited, to bring business priorities directly to ministers. The message was clear: rising uncertainty is undermining stability, investment and jobs, and the system has not kept pace with the needs of the modern economy. On behalf of the global business community, ICC Secretary General called for two essential outcomes at #MC14: • a structured, time‑bound WTO reform process • a permanent e‑commerce moratorium to keep digital trade predictable and accessible Business is united, aligned and ready to support a system that delivers for today’s economy and tomorrow’s opportunities.

The road to #COP31 starts with delivery. New work programmes on climate finance, trade and implementation will shape the 2026 agenda, alongside efforts to accelerate the energy transition. Clarity on investment, finance and implementation remains critical. But commitments alone won’t deliver results. Business must be at the centre of implementation, backed by clear rules and a much greater focus on enabling environments and the right incentives.

If AI creates your marketing campaign… who’s responsible when something goes wrong? 🤔 The ICC Advertising and Marketing Communications Code has long set the global standard for legal, decent, honest and truthful marketing — and that doesn’t change when AI enters the picture. Our new ICC guide, fully anchored in the ICC Code, shows how those established principles apply when AI is used to create or deliver advertising. It breaks down the real risks that come with AI‑driven workflows, including transparency, claim accuracy, data use, consent, and accountability — giving marketers a clear path to compliance. It also includes two practical checklists to support everyday decisions, helping teams apply responsible AI practices consistently and confidently. Read the full guide: bit.ly/4swuOcT

For business, that means protecting its foundations, advancing meaningful reform and keeping digital trade open and accessible. #DontLetTariffsBreakTheInternet More: bit.ly/40JQBBv
