Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2009

The World Economic Forum’s Community of Global Growth Companies (GGC) was formed in 2007 to engage dynamic high-growth companies with the potential to be tomorrow’s industry leaders and to become a driving force of economic and social change. As of December 2009, more than 200 companies from over 50 countries had been admitted to the GGC Community.

Members of the Community of Global Growth Companies convene every year at the Annual Meeting of the New Champions and at the World Economic Forum’s regional meetings, and collaborate through WELCOM, an exclusive online networking platform for business and government leaders.

Through these activities, GGC members have an opportunity to benefit from:
• New business opportunities across industries and regions
• Networking with the world’s leading business and policy experts
• Peer-to-peer collaboration and experience exchange
• Industry-specific and cross-industry knowledge sharing

GGC Membership 

The Forum selects companies on the basis of their revenue, growth rate, internationalization and leadership. Key selection criteria include:

• Annual growth rate exceeding industry and regional average by 15%
• Minimum turnover between US$ 100 million and US$ 5 billion, depending on the industry
• Demonstrated growth potential
• Capacity and intent to build a global business
• Exemplary executive leadership
