Between March 31-April 1, 2027, the Atlantic Council will host the Regional Energy and Infrastructure Summit, the region’s premier biennial forum shaping the future of energy, infrastructure, and strategic cooperation.
Taking place in Istanbul—the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and the Middle East—the Summit will bring together ministers, institutional investors, global business leaders, and project developers from the United States across the Balkans, Caucasus, Central Asia, North Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. The Atlantic Council is organizing the Summit in cooperation with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
By connecting those who shape policy with those who finance and deliver projects, we aim to transform discussion into action and turn shared priorities into tangible progress.
The day is here!
Discussions will focus on:
Energy security
Regional connectivity
Resilient cross-border supply chains
Critical minerals
Financing of major energy and infrastructure projects
Clean energy and new tech
Energy transition
The 2027 Istanbul gathering offers a unique opportunity to connect, collaborate, and lead on the issues that matter most to global growth and stability. Opportunities for governments, senior executives, policymakers, and global thought leaders to take part in the Atlantic Council Regional Energy and Infrastructure Summit are now open. To become a strategic partner in shaping the region’s energy future, please contact Grady Wilson at gwilson@atlanticcouncil.org.
It is appropriate that we are convening this gathering at such a crossroads like Istanbul at a time when I think the world is at a crossroads.
