International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC)

The International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) is a global trade association for the retail and shopping-center industry. It organizes major conferences and regional events, such as ICSC LAS VEGAS and the ICSC@ regional series, which attract thousands of commercial real estate decision-makers. These events focus on dealmaking, networking, and content sessions related to site selection, leasing, development, retail attraction, and business retention. While primarily focused on commercial/retail real estate, ICSC conferences are relevant to economic development professionals and site selectors due to their coverage of business attraction and commercial development.
