The International Institute for Trade and Development (ITD) is pleased to present the Trade Intelligence Forum 2026, under the theme “Navigating Global Megatrends: Regional Outlooks.”
As the global economy faces profound transformations driven by climate change, geopolitical tensions, trade protectionism, technological transformation, demographic shifts, and changes in global value chains, countries are increasingly required to reassess their economic strategies and strengthen regional cooperation.
The Forum brings together experts and researchers from across Southeast Asia to share country-specific perspectives, emerging challenges, strategic opportunities, and policy implications arising from these global megatrends. Discussions will explore issues including green industrial transition, climate vulnerability, energy transition, trade protectionism, demographic change, global value chain restructuring, and evolving economic partnerships.
The Forum also serves as a platform for knowledge exchange and academic cooperation, supporting deeper understanding of the diverse strengths, challenges, and policy directions of countries across the region.
