Our events

This year's conference theme is: 'Transforming Access into Impact"

SME competitiveness is built through a Growth Stack that blends the right capital, trusted data, and digital platforms to move firms from local potential to global performance.
The Global SME Finance Forum 2026 will operationalize this stack—showcasing investable models that mobilize equity and guarantees, embed finance into trade and supply chains, govern AI and data responsibly, fund productivity and green transitions, and unlock cross-border scale.
Set in Washington, DC (Sep 14–17), the Forum leverages the city’s unique ecosystem of financial institutions and public agencies to connect policy, standards, and market innovation with real deal flow and jobs.
Through study visits, interactive tracks, fintech pitches, a B2B Marketplace, and the Global SME Finance Awards, we’ll convert lessons into pipelines—and pipelines into measurable growth.
