Policy and Public Impact

LCCI is the capital’s most representative business organisation – with members spanning small to multinational organisations, we reflect the broad interests of London businesses to policymakers, decision makers and opinion formers at every level.

Through research, analysis and strategic engagement, we tackle the pressing issues facing the city's business community, influencing and advocating for policies and initiatives that bolster London's standing as the best city in the world for business. We draw on our members’ experience and expertise to contribute regularly to consultations, inquiries and debates.
