2026 Themes
Building Regional Economic Corridors
At the intersection of policy, finance and tech
Three conversations shaping the next phase of the Middle Corridor
The Middle Corridor is entering a new phase. Trade and investment are growing, but the financial infrastructure connecting these markets needs to keep pace.
Across three interconnected themes, the Summit will explore how policy, finance and technology can come together to make cross-border capital flows faster, more connected and more trusted.
Economic Corridors
The Middle Corridor is becoming an increasingly important route for trade and investment. But physical connectivity alone is not enough. Financial and digital systems need to connect too - enabling capital, businesses and financial services to move more
efficiently across borders.
The key question: How can governments, financial institutions and the private sector build the interoperable systems and regulatory connections needed to turn regional connectivity into new opportunities for growth?

Assets & Identity On-Chain
As financial services move on-chain, tokenization, stablecoins, custody and digital identity are reshaping how assets and participants move across borders. But on-chain assets are only as trusted as the identities behind them.
The key question: How can interoperable digital assets and trusted identities strengthen regional financial connectivity?
AI in Tokenization & Financial Services
Financial institutions are moving from experimenting with AI to deploying agentic AI across their operations. But unlocking its value requires balancing implementation with governance, particularly around data, risk and responsible use.
The key question: How can financial institutions scale agentic AI while measuring its value and maintaining trust?
