The King's Foundation
International Business Leaders Forum

Championing action for a sustainable future.

In 1989, against Foreign Office advice, the Prince of Wales, now King Charles III, invited an array of the world's most powerful business leaders to a meeting in the hurricane-devastated city of Charleston, South Carolina. This pivotal gathering encouraged CEOs to collaborate on sustainability, and it gave birth to the International Business Leaders Forum. 

In a brave new world, where tech CEOs now influence large segments of the economy, we were tasked with developing a future-proof brand strategy in preparation for Prince Charles accession to the throne.

"Prince Charles has been miles ahead of the curve on many issues relating to global sustainability. He warned about plastic waste in 1970 and championed organic farming long before it became mainstream."

The Daily Telegraph

We championed the lasting impact IBLF's pioneering programs have had on fostering responsible business practices and sustainable development worldwide, and helped raise money for an Endowment Fund in memory of the organizations co-founder, Robert Davies. IBLF was renamed IBLF Global:

​​

  • Today, IBLF Global advises G20 governments on economic policy.

  • Today, IBLF Global works with the U.S. Department of State on initiatives to combat transnational corruption.​​

  • Today, IBLF Global supports the UN's call to align companies with it's principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.
