Earlier this year, in October I had the privilege to attend the B-20 Summit at Sao Palo, Brazil. B-20 (Business 20) established in 2010 is a forum for businesses, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and civil society to discuss policy recommendations for economic growth and development.

The B-20 is the official G-20 dialogue forum with the global business community. The B-20 consists of 706 members from 39 countries. In brief, G-20 is a group of major economies addressing global economic issues, while B-20 represents the voice of the business community in influencing those decisions.
