The Women Economic Forum ASEAN 2026 will begin its regional journey with an elegant and impactful launch event on February 4, 2026, at 4:00 PM, at the Golden Dragon Ballroom, Great Eastern Hotel, Quezon City.
This gathering marks the official prelude to the main forum, which will take place on June 18–21, 2026, at the Rizal Park Hotel in Manila, during the Philippines’ ASEAN Chairmanship year.
Bringing together leaders, entrepreneurs, advocates, and changemakers from across Southeast Asia, the launch will spotlight the vision and momentum behind the Women Economic Forum ASEAN—a premier platform advancing women’s economic leadership, cross-border collaboration, and inclusive growth under the transformative concept of the Sheconomy. The event will offer participants an early look at the forum’s strategic direction, opportunities for regional engagement, and collaborative initiatives that will shape the June forum agenda. It also provides an opportunity to strengthen networks, highlight Philippine leadership in women’s economic empowerment, and set the tone for impactful dialogue in the months ahead.
WEF ASEAN has a strong legacy of uniting women leaders to co-create solutions that drive economic sustainability and regional development through dialogue, strategic partnerships, and policy advocacy across Southeast Asia.
