DIHK Deutscher Industrie- und Handelskammertag e.V.

The 79 Chambers of Industry and Commerce (IHKs) are united under the umbrella of the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce (DIHK). Our common goal: the best conditions for successful business.
At federal and European level, the DIHK represents the interests of the entire commercial sector vis-à-vis politics, administration and the public.
This is because several million companies from trade, industry and services are legal members of an IHK - from kiosk owners to DAX companies. The DIHK and IHKs are therefore a platform for the diverse interests of companies. We bundle these into common business positions in a structured process on a legal basis and thus contribute to the economic policy opinion-forming process. In addition, the DIHK coordinates the network of 140 foreign chambers of commerce, delegations and representative offices of German business in 92 countries.
