Monaco Business, flagship event for entrepreneurs, returns this September

The 13th edition of Monaco Business, the Principality’s annual showcase for companies, will take place on Thursday 18th September at the Sea Club of the Méridien Beach Plaza, under the High Patronage of Prince Albert II. 

Dedicated to entrepreneurs from Monaco and the Riviera, Monaco Business has become a cornerstone of the Principality’s economic calendar. This year’s event will gather more than 1,000 decision-makers, with 50 exhibitorspresenting their products and services, and five expert-led conferences offering in-depth insights into today’s most pressing economic and technological challenges.

The salon is built around four key themes: boosting business, finding solutions, attracting new clients and forging partnerships. It also continues to serve as a unique entry point for startups seeking visibility and growth, as well as for business leaders interested in establishing themselves in Monaco.

Building on past successes

The 2024 edition saw the signing of a cooperation agreement between the Monaco Economic Board and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, further strengthening ties between Monaco and the region. A live TV platform also hosted Les Leaders ont la parole, offering interviews and debates with influential voices from across the business community.

For 2025, attendees can expect an equally rich programme, with conferences designed to encourage interaction and knowledge sharing, and networking spaces dedicated to fostering new professional connections.

A hub for startups and established companies

The exhibition areas will showcase a diverse ecosystem: from established Monégasque and Riviera companies to innovative startups working in digital and new technologies. Dedicated zones will also highlight services for businesses, including the stand Une Administration de Proximité, bringing together representatives from the Direction du Développement Économique, the Mission pour la Transition Énergétique and other key institutions.

A networking lounge and coaching workshops will complete the experience, ensuring both seasoned executives and young entrepreneurs leave with new ideas and opportunities.

Recognising excellence

This year will also continue the tradition of the Monaco Business Prize, awarded to an outstanding company for innovation, building on the success of last year’s award to Laboratoires Asepta, a Monégasque dermo-cosmetics company employing nearly 150 people.
