RICHARD BURGE LCCI
LCCI expands international reach
Richard Burge, CEO of London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), explains how the organisation is forging links between Wandsworth firms and businesses overseas… It has been more than 18 months since Richard Burge assumed his current role as CEO of London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI). In that time, he has had many challenges to overcome, notably helping businesses to navigate through the worst global health pandemic in living memory. Now, though, Richard’s focus is on the future – and in particular, on forging new connections with Chambers of Commerce and their members in overseas cities. He says: “Since I took on my current role, we’ve worked hard to ensure that there are really good Chambers at a borough level in London, organisations that provide good granular services to local businesses. In many cases this has worked very well.
