Sustainability Expo 2026 (SX2026), ASEAN’s largest sustainability event, will return for its seventh year from November 6-15, 2026 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC), elevating its reach onto the global stage with an expanded lineup of international partners and high-profile global leaders.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SX2026 builds on the foundation laid by previous editions, reflecting the evolving nature of the sustainability conversation. From raising awareness in its early years to highlighting the need for change and adaptation, the event now moves toward the next critical step: action. Guided by the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy, this year’s theme “Resilience in Action” underscores the importance of translating shared understanding and commitment into practical, scalable solutions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 10-day event aims to bring together Thai and international policymakers, business leaders, innovators, youth, and communities to develop adaptive solutions across areas ranging from health and lifestyle to urban development, in response to accelerating environmental and technological challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
