Steel Networking Summit to bring international industry to Istanbul

More than 400 steel industry professionals are expected to attend the Steel Networking Summit 2026 in Istanbul from 25 to 27 October, bringing together producers, buyers and other industry representatives from more than 80 countries.

The event, held at Swissôtel The Bosphorus under the auspices of the Turkish Steel Exporters' Association, is expected to attract more than 200 international steel buyers and feature over 30 speakers.

The programme will focus on international steel trade, sourcing and market developments, alongside B2B meetings between steel suppliers and procurement representatives.

Organisers are also running a Hosted Buyers Program for qualifying international steel procurement executives. The programme includes travel and accommodation as well as access to tailored B2B meetings during the summit.

The three-day event is intended to provide a meeting point for Turkish steel companies and international buyers at a time when changing trade flows and market conditions are reshaping sourcing strategies across the global steel industry.

The Steel Networking Summit 2026 will take place at Swissôtel The Bosphorus.
