Global solutions summit 2026

The Glo­bal Solu­ti­ons Sum­mit 2026 brought tog­e­ther inter­na­tio­nal thought lea­ders and high-ran­king poli­ti­cal guests on 1 and 2 June 2026 at the AXICA Forum, Pari­ser Platz 3 – to for­ge new alli­ances and find shared solu­ti­ons in a frac­tu­red world.

Under the the­me ‘Fin­ding Com­mon Ground in a Frac­tu­red World’, inter­na­tio­nal repre­sen­ta­ti­ves from poli­tics, busi­ness, aca­de­mia and civil socie­ty dis­cus­sed con­cre­te approa­ches to tack­ling glo­bal chal­lenges. Among the most pro­mi­nent guests from Ger­man poli­tics were for­mer Fede­ral Chan­cell­or Olaf Scholz and Fede­ral Minis­ter for the Envi­ron­ment Cars­ten Schneider.

AXICA’s archi­tec­tu­ral­ly spec­ta­cu­lar Forum for­med the cen­tre­pie­ce of the sum­mit. This is whe­re the main ple­na­ry ses­si­ons took place, flan­ked by addi­tio­nal spaces for work­shops, net­wor­king and in-depth dis­cus­sions. The distinc­ti­ve archi­tec­tu­re by Frank O. Gehry, the loca­ti­on right next to the Bran­den­burg Gate and the tech­ni­cal faci­li­ties crea­ted an envi­ron­ment in which thought-pro­vo­king con­tent and inspi­ring encoun­ters came tog­e­ther seamlessly.

Behind the sce­nes, the AXICA team ensu­red that ever­y­thing ran smooth­ly. Pro­ject mana­ger Tetya­na Hess, in col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with the Glo­bal Solu­ti­ons Initia­ti­ve, co-ordi­na­ted the diver­se requi­re­ments of a top-tier inter­na­tio­nal event – from the spa­ti­al design and logi­stics right through to the culina­ry con­cepts that unders­cored the spi­rit of the summit.

The Glo­bal Solu­ti­ons Sum­mit 2026 impres­si­ve­ly demons­tra­ted how important spaces are that faci­li­ta­te exch­an­ge, bring dif­fe­rent per­spec­ti­ves tog­e­ther and fos­ter new alli­ances for joint action. We are proud that AXICA was once again able to pro­vi­de the stage and an inspi­ring set­ting for this glo­bal dialogue.
