The 52nd edition of the Cernobbio Forum, the annual gathering organized by The European House Ambrosetti, takes place from 4 to 6 September 2026 at Villa d'Este in Cernobbio, on the shores of Lake Como, Italy.
Hosted by The European House Ambrosetti, part of TEHA Group, the forum has run every September since 1975 under the banner of intelligence on the world, Europe and Italy. It gathers heads of government and ministers, central bankers, academics and the chief executives of major European and international companies for three days of closed door discussion on the global economic and geopolitical outlook.
The 2026 edition continues the forum's phygital format, with the central hub at Villa d'Este connected to satellite hubs in Italy, Europe and the rest of the world. Sessions traditionally move from global scenarios on the opening day toward Europe and then Italy on the closing day.
For executives and advisers, Cernobbio remains one of Europe's most concentrated rooms of political and corporate decision makers, and the September weekend regularly sets the tone for the continent's autumn policy debate.
