Registration and Participation at ICC Events Policy

  1. Purpose  
    The International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) and its working bodies regularly organise and co-organise events in different parts of the world. Many of these events are open to the public and are advertised on the ICC website as well as widely promoted via the ICC network and online channels. ICC also organises and hosts events that are targeted to specific audiences, and events that are invite-only.
    1. Through these events, ICC aims to achieve diverse objectives:
  2. to provide thought leadership and increase ICC’s profile across its areas of expertise;
  3. to promote ICC activities, initiatives, and services;
  4. to provide knowledge-sharing and networking opportunities; and
  5. to deliver training or capacity-building programmes.
    1. The aim of this document is to outline ICC’s policy regarding the registration and participation of participants at ICC events, and the assignment of nationality and country affiliations to participants. The policy applies to all events organised and co-organised by ICC including its offices abroad and its legal entities. The policy is for use by ICC staff and co-organisers of ICC events, and may be shared with participants.
       
    2. Reference to ‘participant’ includes any person, organisation, or entity taking part in the event and includes delegates, guests, attendees, partners, sponsors, exhibitors, competitors, speakers, presenters, panellists, volunteers, staff, and anyone else present at the ICC event.
       
    3. A template Code of Conduct for participants is included in this policy at Annexure A, and may be amended as appropriate to reflect the size, type and location of the event taking place.

 

  1. Registration and participation at ICC events
    1. Regardless of whether the events are free or paid, open or exclusive, ICC or the co-organiser will require participants to express their interest in participating, register, or respond to an invitation (as the case may be). Typically, ICC or the co-organiser will require participants to fill-in an online registration form prior to the event and to complete payment of the corresponding fees where applicable. ICC reserves the right to reject any registration or payment, and exclude a participant at any time, in its sole discretion, and as it deems necessary. Circumstances for rejection of a registration or payment or exclusion from an event may include, but are not limited to:
  1. the individual, or the entity they represent, is subject to international, regional, national and/or other relevantly applicable sanctions, restrictive measures, or otherwise prohibited from participating due to embargo-related considerations;
  2. the participation of the individual, or the entity they represent, could or does create a risk to ICC’s image and reputation, as deemed by ICC;
  3. the individual, or the entity they represent, demonstrates unlawful conduct during or in connection with the event;
  4. the individual, or the entity they represent, seeks to use the ICC event as a political platform (as deemed by ICC) or its conduct during or in connection with the event go against ICC’s principles of political neutrality and impartiality;
  5. the individual has not fulfilled its payment obligations;
  6. the individual has not provided required registration details or information;
  7. the individual is not respecting the Code of Conduct or the general terms and conditions applicable to the event, as deemed by ICC;
  8. the participation of the individual may disturb or threaten the peace and order of the event or the safety of the event’s participants or premises, as deemed by ICC; and
  9. the individual, or the entity they represent, has conducted itself inconsistently with any of the above circumstances at previous ICC events.
     
    1. Registration from individuals or entities being nationals of or domiciled in a sanctioned or embargoed country pursuant to laws and regulations applicable to ICC will be subject to prior ICC compliance verifications and clearance in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. Payment instructions regarding the registration fees will be communicated in due time and the payment will be invited in Canadian Dollars exclusively.
       
    1. Obtaining any required visa to attend an ICC event is the sole onus and responsibility of the participant. The ICC and co-organisers will not be able to assist in any visa application or process, and will not contact or intervene with any embassy or consulate on behalf of the participant. In some circumstances and in the sole discretion of ICC, ICC or the co-organiser may provide participants with a visa invitation letter, after completion of all appropriate due diligence and compliance verifications. The letter will be strictly fit for the purpose and duration of the event. Such letter does not financially or legally obligate ICC or its co-organisers in any way.

 

  1. Assignment of nationality and country affiliations to participants at ICC events
    1. When registering for an ICC event, in most cases participants are required to indicate, among other things, their full name, contact details, nationality or nationalities, as well as the name, address, and country of the entity they represent.
       
    1. This information will be used, notably, to create the event’s participants list and identify the participants in badges, lanyards and the event’s website and app, as appropriate and in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.
    1. It must be noted and accepted by all participants that:
      a. When processing registrations, ICC (or the co-organiser) will only propose and accept countries and territories that:
  • are recognised in the ICC Constitution; or which
  • the United Nations consider as “Member States” or “Non-Member States having received a standing invitation to participate as Observers in the sessions and the work of the General Assembly and maintaining Permanent Observer Missions at Headquarters”.
  1. In the case of participants taking part as individual participants and not representing any entity at the event, ICC will assign them the first nationality which they have indicated in the online registration form.
  2. In the case of participants representing an entity at the event, ICC will assign them the country which is currently recognised by the international community as exercising sovereignty over the territory in which the entity is physically located.
  3. Where disagreements exist within the international community on the sovereignty of a territory, ICC will assign the country in accordance with the name used in the ICC Constitution or the latest resolutions of the UN General Assembly and the UN Security Council at the time of the event.
  4. In the absence of a consensus within the UN system, ICC will assign the country in accordance with the current majority view among members of the UN General Assembly at the time of the event.
