TEHRAN – The Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture (ICCIMA) is going to host the 40th general assembly of the Islamic Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture (ICCIA) in 2024.

The decision was made during the 39th meeting of the ICCIA general assembly which was held in Qatar’s capital Doha on Saturday, the ICCIMA portal reported.

In the meeting, the attendees approved the recommendation of the 35th Board of Directors of the ICCIA to change the name of ICCIA to the Islamic Chamber of Commerce and Development (ICCD). The Meeting also approved the new Logo of the ICCIA.

The members also reviewed the report on the implementation of the programs and projects of the ICCIA for 2023 as well as its financial report for 2023. In this context, the participants approved the recommendations of the ICCIA’s Board of Directors Meeting on the activities and programs of ICCIA for 2024 and approved the budget of the ICCIA for 2024.

In the previous edition of the meeting in Baku in July, ICCIMA Head Hossein Selahvarzi expressed Iran’s readiness to host the 40th edition of the meeting.

The ICCIA was founded under the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in 1978 and it now covers chambers of commerce from 57 Islamic countries.

Iran’s hosting of the ICCIA General Assembly Meeting in 2024 will be the country’s first hosting of the meeting since the ICCIA came into existence 45 years ago.
