Welcome to the 2026 WTCA Middle East & Africa Conference

We are thrilled to invite you to join us in the historic city of Cairo, Egypt, from September 7–9, 2026, for the WTCA Middle East & Africa Regional Conference. Hosted by World Trade Center Cairo, this year’s conference will bring together WTCA Members, business leaders, investors, and innovators from across the Middle East and Africa to explore new opportunities for collaboration, growth, and regional impact.

Through keynote addresses, panel discussions, interactive Member presentations, and networking opportunities, attendees will gain insights into emerging market trends, regional business opportunities, and the evolving role of World Trade Center businesses in advancing economic growth and cross-border partnerships throughout the MEA Region. Participants will also have the opportunity to exchange best practices, strengthen relationships, and identify new avenues for business development and collaboration across the global WTCA network.

In addition to valuable networking and business development opportunities, participants will experience the rich culture and history of Cairo—one of the region’s most dynamic commercial and cultural hubs. From meaningful business connections to immersive local experiences, the conference is designed to foster engagement, inspire new ideas, and create lasting partnerships.

We look forward to welcoming you to Cairo for an engaging, impactful, and memorable conference experience.
