Reclaiming Inclusion through Global Trade

Two Weeks. Two Themes. One Vision for a More Equitable Future.

The Festival of Inclusive Trade returns in March 2026, and this year, the invitation is wider than ever. Across two powerful weeks online, the Festival will unite trade professionals, policymakers, entrepreneurs, artists, youth leaders, and communities to reimagine global trade as a force for equity, trust, sustainability, and shared prosperity.

After a brief pause, we are back with renewed purpose. The 2026 Festival is about reclaiming what inclusion truly means—in who participates, who benefits, and who gets a seat at the table.

What to Expect

  • Global keynote conversations
  • Panels, workshops & fireside chats
  • Youth and entrepreneur forums
  • Country-hosted and community-hosted events
  • An international art program
  • Networking and collaboration spaces

Get Involved

  • Host an event
  • Submit art
  • Become a partner
  • Sponsor a session
  • Join as a country or corporate collaborator

This is a festival for everyone.

Together, let’s reclaim inclusion and reshape the future of trade.

The Festival of Inclusive Trade returns with a bold agenda: to unpack the challenges of our time, inspire moral leadership, and forge new, trust-based international partnerships grounded in cooperation rather than competition.

We are inviting like-minded nations—to become Country Partner Hosts. While the Festival remains virtual, host countries enjoy a leading role in shaping the program, showcasing national strengths, and amplifying international engagement.

We are inviting global trade alliance organisations and institutions to partner with us for the Festival of Inclusive Trade. By collaborating with the Festival, your organisation will play an instrumental role in shaping the global conversation on inclusive trade, sustainable practices, and innovation in cross-border cooperation.

The Festival of Inclusive Trade offers corporate organisations the opportunity to showcase their leadership and commitment to inclusive trade and innovation in an entirely virtual environment. This two-week online event will engage stakeholders from around the world—policymakers, trade experts, entrepreneurs, artists, youth leaders, and more—who will collaborate on sustainable trade practices and cross-cultural cooperation.
