The ICC Austria ( International Chamber of Commerce Austria respectively. International Chamber of Commerce in Austria ) is a division of Commerce Austria and National Group of the International Chamber of Commerce (International Chamber of Commerce, ICC) for Austria . It is thus both the representation for Austria's foreign trade interests and the lobby organization for free trade . Her tasks are mainly networking and advice, as well as dispute resolution and financial support.
history
The Austrian representation of the International Chamber of Commerce, founded in 1919, was established in 1921 and - as the only one of the war opponents of the founding states - took part in the first ICC conference in London. Of the 45 countries that were members in 1929, only 25 had formed national groups, and to date there are only 58 such national organizations.
After the Second World War, the agency could only be re-established in 1950.
In 1975 the now renowned International Arbitration Court of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce ( Vienna International Arbitration Court or Vienna International Arbitral Center , VIAC ), which is independent from the ICC, was created as a legally dependent organization of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce (WKÖ) ( arbitration rules : Vienna rules; mediation rules : Vienna Mediation Rules) . Therefore, Austria has two independent institutions for international trade and international commercial arbitration within the WKÖ.
