Fostering sustainable and inclusive trade
Hosted annually by DHL Group, the GoTrade Summit brings together a cross-section of the public and private sectors to discuss sustainable and inclusive economic growth through trade. With a special focus on MSMEs, the event provides a platform for interdisciplinary dialogue and practice-sharing towards enhancing the resilience and accessibility of the global trade ecosystem.
This year's edition marks the first time the event is held outside of Germany and coincides with Malaysia's chairmanship of ASEAN, a regional bloc of ten Southeast Asian countries and home to more than 660 million people.
The 2025 DHL GoTrade Summit is presented in collaboration with the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) and with the support of the Malaysian Ministry of Investment, Trade, and Industry (MITI).
GoTrade is a social impact programme by DHL Group aimed at facilitating sustainable growth through cross-border trade. To this end, key focus areas encompass supporting MSMEs to expand globally, reducing trade barriers, and helping to improve customs compliance efficiency.
Kindly note that this agenda is tentative and subject to change.
