Date: 20-21 April 2026
Venue: The Mansion House, London, EC4N 8BH

The fifth edition of the Commonwealth Trade and Investment Summit will be held on 20th and 21st April, 2026, at the City of London’s historic Mansion House. CWEIC will convene Heads of Government, Ministers, and senior business leaders from across the Commonwealth for two days of discussion and networking at the highest level.

The 56 countries of the Commonwealth offer a unique platform for collaboration – connected by common institutions, shared legal traditions, and a rapidly expanding consumer base. With a population of 2.7 billion and some of the world’s most dynamic emerging markets, the Commonwealth’s scale and diversity create significant opportunities for innovation, investment, and economic partnership.

Under the theme “Commonwealth Solutions to Global Challenges,” CTIS 2026 will convene leaders from government, business, finance, and technology for two days of strategic discussions. The programme will examine issues such as the future of AI, sustainable energy transitions, infrastructure investment, health technologies, creative industries, and the evolving global financial landscape. The Summit will also host closed-door roundtables designed to encourage robust dialogue and practical problem-solving.

Our Chairman & CEO Hirander Misra will have the honour of delivering a keynote speech, as well as have a fireside chat with Samantha Cohen CVO OBE, CEO of Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council.
