EACD Summit 2026 The must-attend pan-European
event for communicators!
[Brussels, 18-19 June 2026]
EACD 2026 Summit
EACD SUMMIT 2026
Agents of Change at the Crossroads
The unmissable Summit where we discuss what’s next for communicators who want to make a difference

At the EACD Summit 2026, Europe’s senior communicators and experts came together in Brussels to explore how technology, geopolitics and an ever more polarising global discourse intersect with the need to protect corporate reputation, engage employees and build societal trust. Through case studies, thought leadership and peer-to-peer exchange, participants looked at how today’s agents of change are preparing for what lies ahead.

The Summit also marked 20 years of the EACD advancing the profession. Rather than simply celebrating the milestone, it looked ahead: at the changing purpose of corporate communications and at what the next generation of communicative impact could look like.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Brussels to connect, learn and help shape the future of communication leadership. We look forward to seeing you again on 24–25 June 2027 at Cardo Brussels.
