About World Business Summit
Redefining Global Business
World Business Summit is a global platform for business growth, transaction-focused engagement, and cross-border industrial collaboration.

WBS 2026 in Sofia, Bulgaria, is built around a 72-hour Global Deal Room, five high-velocity sector tracks, and a hybrid engagement model designed to move conversations into measurable outcomes.
