Roundtable
Business Roundtable is an association of more than 200 chief executive officers (CEOs) of America’s leading companies, representing every sector of the U.S. economy. Business Roundtable CEOs lead U.S.-based companies that support one in four American jobs and almost a quarter of U.S. GDP. Through CEO-led policy committees, Business Roundtable members develop and advocate directly for policies to promote a thriving U.S. economy and expanded opportunity for all Americans.
The Board develops the priorities of the organization and champions our policy work. Chuck Robbins, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Cisco, is the Chair of Business Roundtable.
Business Roundtable members are the CEOs of leading U.S. companies. Collectively, they represent all sectors and bring an important perspective on policy issues that impact the economy. Business Roundtable members are pragmatic thought leaders, advocating for policy solutions that foster U.S. economic growth and competitiveness.
