Lizzy Todd - ICC President
Welcome to Inverclyde Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the champion of Inverclyde businesses and providing services to improve business representation, networking, knowledge, awareness and performance.
ICC has been the influential voice of business in Inverclyde since we received our Royal Charter in 1813. Today, 210 years on, we are continuing to provide valuable services along with a range of initiatives to businesses of all sizes.
ICC regularly represents Inverclyde business interests, and has formed key alliances with business leaders, trade associations, government agencies, enterprise bodies, and other chambers to ensure representation for our members at all levels. ICC also ensures a continued board presence on a number of local boards which can be seen here
We consult regularly with members and work proactively with the Scottish Government, Westminster, Inverclyde Council, and Scottish Chamber of Commerce, to ensure that the issues driving economic activity and growth, and any barriers threatening our national and global competitiveness, are prioritised on the political agenda.
The need for a strong voice to represent Inverclyde business has never been greater. ICC is a dynamic member-led organisation, completely independent and not-for-profit with one straightforward objective – to support the local business community and specifically our strong network of member businesses.
By joining a Chamber of Commerce, your company automatically becomes part of Scotland’s largest business organisation, with access to an unrivaled range of services, support and advice to aid your development and growth.
