In September 2026, the NEXO SUMMIT in Lima, organized by the Confederation of Real Estate Developers of Peru (CODIP), focused on urban development challenges. Discussions centered on a national housing gap of approximately 1.9 million homes and the requirement for planned water and sanitation infrastructure. Participants explored financing alternatives like microfinance and state guarantees, while emphasizing the need for coordination between the private sector and government to ensure predictable rules for infrastructure.

By October 2026, the Peru Sustainable Summit addressed broader economic and environmental challenges. Under the pillar of ‘Planet’, experts warned that climate change could cause hydroelectric plants in basins such as the Huallaga river to lose up to 95% of their generation capacity by the end of the century. Under the ‘People’ pillar, the summit addressed the impact of artificial intelligence on productivity and the gap between workforce skills and market demands, aiming to better align technical training with private sector needs to promote formal employment.

During the same period, efforts to strengthen national production in Peru included the promotion of a new Health Innovation Hub. Additionally, the Retail Media Summit expanded into the country to address the growing global and regional retail media market.
