The Atlantic Dialogues 2026 will be held from 11 to 13 December 2026 in Rabat, returning for its 14th edition as one of the region's leading forums on the economics and geopolitics of the wider Atlantic and Global South.
Convened by the Policy Center for the New South under the patronage of King Mohammed VI, the conference brings together former heads of state, ministers, chief executives and thought leaders to debate trade, investment, security and governance across the Atlantic basin, with a particular focus on Africa's role in it.
Why it matters to executives
The Atlantic Dialogues is a strategic-foresight platform, and its value to executives lies in the quality of its access and its focus on the macro forces that shape long-term strategy. For boards with exposure to Africa and the Atlantic economies, the discussions offer perspective on trade realignment, investment flows and political risk from people who have shaped policy at the highest level.
Its December timing also makes it a useful close to the year for leaders taking stock of the geopolitical landscape before setting strategy for the year ahead.
