About ICCP
The International Consortium of Caribbean Professionals
The ICCP was founded by a group of like-minded Caribbean professionals on the simple premise that the Caribbean is a region rich in human resources and what the Diaspora, as an extension of the Caribbean, is an untapped and underutilized reservoir of knowledge, expertise, innovative ideas and capital etc. central to the development of the Caribbean and its peoples at home and abroad. The group further believed that the level of cooperation and collaborative spirit between and among Caribbean professionals, businesses and government need to be developed to and sustained at a higher level. On the basis of these mutually agreed on premises and after several meetings, the group first established the Consortium of Caribbean Professionals in - and later the International Consortium of Caribbean Professionals in 2002 with its head office in Jamaica, W.I
To mobilize and bring together Caribbean Professionals across national and regional boundaries to share information, knowledge, resources and expertise through collaboration, partnerships, and individual initiatives for the mutual benefit of its membership and the Caribbean peoples and nations.
We envision a world where Caribbean professionals are recognized as leaders and change-makers in diverse fields, influencing policies, driving innovation, and contributing significantly to the global community.
