How does it work?
In-person International Summit
The G20 YEA Summit will be held in person in Vienna, Austria. Futurpreneur will lead the delegation, as well as Canadian trade activities, with a delegation briefing held virtually in advance of the summit (see below for more details).
Canadian delegation Summit activities
Futurpreneur is hosting pre-summit activities for the Canadian delegation, offering a robust agenda filled with networking and trade opportunities. Futurpreneur will also be leading policy consultations for Canadian delegates to inform the drafting of the 2026 Communiqué.
Canadian delegates will meet virtually in advance of the summit to participate in a variety of business-building, policy-making and networking activities with government officials, international trade organizations, consular trade representatives/business associations from G20 countries and Trade Commissioner Services.
Our aim is to provide safe, interactive, and inclusive G20 trade opportunities to a diverse group of young entrepreneurs from across the Canadian international trade landscape, supporting members of equity-deserving communities, including women, Black, Indigenous, newcomers, 2SLGTBQIA+ and people living with disabilities.
