The first International Transport and Logistics Forum will be held in St. Petersburg in the spring of 2026. It will become a platform for discussing global connectivity, international corridors and integration within the framework of BRICS, EAEU and SCO.

In the spring of 2026, St. Petersburg will host the first International Transport and Logistics Forum, which will become one of the key platforms for discussing the future of global logistics and transport links. The decision to hold it was made at a meeting of the organizing committee in Moscow, chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Saveliev. Representatives of federal ministries, major transport companies and the expert community took part in the discussion.

According to the organizers, the forum is intended to become an open platform for dialogue between the government, business and international partners. It is assumed that the event will be held on an annual basis, forming a stable tradition of professional interaction.

The main focus will be on global connectivity and the development of international transport corridors, including the strategic North–South route. The agenda will also include the topics of integration within the EAEU, CIS, SCO, BRICS and the Union State, as well as strengthening cooperation between partner countries.

Separate sessions of the forum will be devoted to the development of transport education, innovations and personnel training in the industry. The program provides for bilateral negotiations and inter-country dialogues, as well as the signing of cooperation agreements.

The organizers emphasize that the forum will become a symbol of technological leadership and openness of the Russian transport industry, bringing together representatives of the logistics business, international corporations and government agencies.
