The Business 20 (B20) connects the business community with G20 governments. The group includes around 900 business representatives and proposes to the G20 policy recommendations prepared by task forces meeting virtually over the presidential term.
The B20 officially met for the first time at the Toronto Summit in 2010, to deal with the effects of the 2008 economic crisis. The G20 reformulated itself during this period, and part of this reformulation was the strengthening of dialogue with the private sector.
