Colombia to host Caribe BIZ Forum and Foro NEXO business events

The Caribe BIZ Forum 2026, organized by the Barranquilla Chamber of Commerce, is scheduled to begin on October 15 at the Puerta de Oro Convention and Event Center. The forum, themed ‘Augmented Strategy,’ will focus on four central pillars: the application of artificial intelligence in business, evolving market landscapes and consumer interests, the impact of geopolitics on corporate decision-making, and the economic outlook for Colombia toward 2030.

Separately, the Foro NEXO 2026 will take place on October 7-8 in Bogotá and October 9 in Medellín. Promoted by the French Institute of Colombia, the event aims to connect the cultural and creative industries of France and Colombia. The forum will host over 30 international and national experts to discuss challenges such as financing, intellectual property, business models, and internationalization. Key international participants include representatives from the Chamber of Trades and Crafts of Île-de-France, CENTQUATRE-PARIS, and EuraCreative by Plaine Images.
