Phnom Penh is set to host one of Cambodia’s most significant business and investment gatherings of the year with the Invest-Hub Forum 2026, scheduled for 4 February 2026 at the Grand Ballroom of Raffles Hotel Le Royal. Designed as a high-impact, one-day forum, the event will bring together around 300 delegates comprising investors, SMEs, corporate leaders, financial institutions, developers, and industry experts from Cambodia and abroad.
The forum is organised by Shinkai Group in collaboration with strategic partners and is positioned as a practical platform for investment intelligence, deal structuring, and business matchmaking at a time when global capital flows are being reshaped by geopolitical shifts and regional realignments. With Cambodia increasingly viewed as a competitive ASEAN investment destination, the forum aims to translate interest into actionable partnerships.
The event will be officially opened by the Guest of Honour, H.E. Dr. Sok Siphana, Senior Minister of the Royal Government of Cambodia in charge of Multilateral Trade and Economic Affairs. His opening address on the Global Investment Outlook 2026 is expected to set the tone for the day by outlining macro-economic trends, Cambodia’s trade positioning, and opportunities arising from regional integration and policy reforms.
The forum agenda has been carefully structured to balance strategic insight with practical engagement. The morning programme features Panel Discussion 1 on Growth Sectors and Emerging Market Opportunities, focusing on sectors expected to drive Cambodia’s growth in 2026 and beyond. Discussions will cover economic drivers, shifts in consumer demand, and the role of government incentives and national development plans, making it particularly relevant for investors and companies exploring market entry or expansion.
Following a networking lunch and showcase viewing, the afternoon will move into investment matching sessions, a core highlight of the forum. These curated one-on-one meetings are designed to connect businesses with relevant buyers, distributors, investors, and strategic partners, ensuring commercially meaningful conversations rather than generic networking.
Panel Discussion 2 will then address ASEAN Investment Gateways: Structuring Cross-Border Deals Amid Shifting Geopolitics. This session will focus on how investors and companies can structure, secure, and de-risk cross-border investments in the current environment. Topics include regulatory compliance, financing models, governance requirements, and real deal-making experiences across ASEAN, offering practical value to banks, law firms, private equity, and corporates with regional ambitions.
Throughout the day, a booth showcase will run continuously, allowing delegates to explore products, services, and investment projects at their own pace. The programme concludes with closing remarks and acknowledgements, reinforcing the forum’s emphasis on long-term collaboration rather than one-off transactions.
Beyond the forum itself, the Invest-Hub Forum 2026 also includes networking and engagement elements such as business matching, sponsor presentations, and a dedicated gala networking environment, further strengthening relationship-building among participants.
By combining policy insight, sector-focused discussions, and structured business matching, Invest-Hub Forum 2026 positions itself as more than a conference. It is a working platform aimed at connecting capital with opportunity and reinforcing Cambodia’s role as a gateway for investment into ASEAN in 2026 and beyond.
