ASEAN-EU Business Summit 2026
The ASEAN-EU Business Summit is the EU-ABC’s annual flagship forum for high-level dialogue on ASEAN-EU trade and investment. The 2026 edition will be held on 22 September, alongside the ASEAN Economic Ministers’ Meeting in Manila.
Each year, the Summit convenes government and business leaders from across Southeast Asia and Europe to address key economic issues and advance cooperation. This year’s Summit is anchored on one of three pillars under the Philippines' 2026 ASEAN Chairship – Prosperity Corridors – and will look at four main themes: (1) green energy transition; (2) inclusive finance; (3) AI and digital transformation; and (4) health and nutrition.
The event will feature a series of high-level discussions and engagements with senior policymakers, thought leaders, business executives and industry experts. More than 200 representatives from government, business, development institutions and civil society are expected to attend.
The ASEAN-EU Business Summit is an official ASEAN 2026 side event endorsed by the Philippines’ Department of Trade and Industry, and jointly organised by the EU-ASEAN Business Council and the European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines. It is fully private-sector funded and brought to you by HSBC with support from Prudential, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, FrieslandCampina and Swift.
