Industry Advisory Committee

The IEF's Industry Advisory Committee (IAC) includes senior leaders from energy companies headquartered in member countries. The Committee was established in June 2005 at the invitation of then IEF Host Country, Qatar.

The IAC advises the Secretary General, Executive Board and member countries on activities of the Forum and emerging areas of focus. The Secretary General may request the IAC to undertake studies and issue reports on topics of interest to the IEF.

In addition, the IAC allows for industry input on the IEF Ministerial agenda. The IAC also reinforces the importance of industry to the dialogue and, through constant counsel with the IEF, deepens the IEF’s understanding of industry’s perspective on issues relevant to the IEF's program of work.
