Development2030 - Partnerships for a sustainable future - Unlocking the potential for collective impact through multi-stakeholder collaboration
Development2030 is a unique exhibition dedicated to bringing together global development actors to help achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs). It is a place for the global development community to build meaningful relationships, get inspired and meet like-minded individuals committed to achieving the 2030 goals.
The event takes place on 22-23 October 2025 at Palexpo in Geneva, Switzerland and is co-located with AidEx; together, they welcome over 3000 representatives from the international development and humanitarian aid community, all under one roof.
The events are attended by global development actors, NGOs, foundations, philanthropic organisations, senior economic, social and environmental advisors, members of government, investors, donors, multilateral banks, multi-national organisations (such as the UN and EU) and private sector companies.
