Business for Inclusive Growth (B4IG) is a CEO-led coalition of global businesses representing 4.4 million employees and a combined revenue of over 1 trillion USD. Launched at the G7 Summit in Biarritz in 2019, it is united in the belief that business has a central role to play in ensuring that any future economic growth is distributed fairly across society. Together with the OECD as its strategic partner, the coalition aims to scale up business action on inequality, by advancing human rights, building inclusive workplaces, and strengthening inclusion in company value chains and ecosystems. B4IG is developing a “Pathway for Change” to tackle different forms of inequality in a consistent manner through business action. The coalition’s three pillar structure includes Working Groups, that consist of collaborative efforts committing to concrete actions and systemic changes; an Incubator, that pilots and scales innovative business practices; and an Inclusive Growth Financing Forum, that mobilizes innovative finance mechanisms to advance inclusive growth projects.
