Bangkok, Thailand, March 26, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX / As the global economy faces a defining period marked by geopolitical shifts, economic uncertainty, and the accelerating urgency for sustainable development, Bangkok is set to host one of the region’s most forward-looking economic gatherings. The 2nd Global Economic Forum Bangkok Annual Meeting 2026 will take place from 10–14 October 2026, under the theme: “Shaping Resilient Economies, Advancing Sustainable Global Growth.”

Bringing together global leaders, investors, policymakers, and industry pioneers, the forum positions itself as a high-level platform for shaping strategies that respond to today’s most pressing global challenges while unlocking future opportunities.

Formerly known as the CHG Global Summit, the GEF Bangkok has evolved into a broader and more globally resonant platform—reflecting a growing demand for deeper economic cooperation, sustainable investment frameworks, and cross-border partnerships.

Building on the momentum of its inaugural 2025 edition, which welcomed a distinguished network of international stakeholders, the forum continues to strengthen Bangkok’s position as an emerging hub for global economic convergence.

At a time when economies are navigating supply chain disruptions, climate pressures, and shifting geopolitical alliances, the 2026 forum is designed to move beyond discussion—focusing on actionable insights, strategic alignment, and measurable outcomes.
“We are entering a decade where resilience is no longer optional—it is foundational,” said Jacky Ong, Founder and Chairman of the Global Economic Forum Bangkok.

“This forum is not just about conversation; it is about convergence—bringing together leadership, capital, and innovation to shape sustainable economic systems that deliver real impact across borders.”

The forum is designed as a multi-dimensional experience, combining high-level dialogue with practical, sector-focused immersion.
