Summit was held at the in London, England between June 7 to 9, 1984. The
venue for the summit meetings was Lancaster House in London. The Group
of Seven (G7) was an unofficial forum which brought together the heads
of the richest industrialized countries: France, Germany, Italy, Japan,
the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada (since 1976) and the
President of the European Commission (starting officially in 1981). The
summits were not meant to be linked formally with wider international
institutions; and in fact, a mild rebellion against the stiff formality
of other international meetings was a part of the genesis of cooperation
between France's President Giscard d'Estaing and Germany's Chancellor
Helmut Schmidt as they conceived the first Group of Six (G6) summit in
1975.
