CCPI Supporting Partner — Canada - ASEAN Business Forum 2026
Anchored in the Philippines’ Chairmanship theme, “Navigating Our Future, Together,” the
Canada-ASEAN Business Council (CABC) will convene the Canada-ASEAN Business
Forum 2026 in Manila, the Philippines. Held on the sidelines of the ASEAN Business and
Investment Summit (ABIS), the Forum will bring together senior government leaders,
business executives, and institutional partners to advance the next phase of Canada-ASEAN
economic cooperation.
As ASEAN approaches a pivotal moment in its economic trajectory, on track to become the
world’s fourth-largest economy by 2030, the Forum will serve as a strategic platform to align
policy priorities with private-sector capabilities. It aims to strengthen the bridge between
government and industry, supporting the translation of trade and investment frameworks into
tangible commercial partnerships, more resilient supply chains, and sustainable, inclusive
growth.
At the Canada-ASEAN Business Forum 2026, leaders from business and government will
explore opportunities across:
- Agri-food and food security
- Energy transition
- Infrastructure and connectivity
- Investment
- Capacity building
- MSMEs growth
Hear from distinguished government representatives and business leaders as they engage
in meaningful dialogue on market developments, sector priorities, and opportunities to
deepen commercial engagement between Canada and ASEAN.
