Lao Responsible Business Awards & Trade Fair to spotlight sustainable, inclusive businesses
Businesses from across Laos will be celebrated for leading the way in sustainable and inclusive practices at the Lao Responsible Business Awards (RBA) & Trade Fair 2026 on February 12 at Holiday Inn & Suites Vientiane.
The event will bring together businesses, development partners, civil society organisations, and institutions to promote responsible and sustainable business practices in Laos.
The event is free and open to the public. Businesses, development partners, civil society organisations, students, and all interested individuals are very welcome to attend and share in the advancement of responsible business practices in Laos. It will be a great networking opportunity.
The event will begin at 4:00 PM and will feature the Responsible Trade Fair, Awards Ceremony, and Networking Opportunities.
The fair creates an interactive space for businesses, NGOs, and institutions to showcase sustainable products, services, and initiatives, while attendees can network, share their knowledge, and collaborate in advancing responsible business practices in Laos.
The highlight of the event will see four winners announced during the Awards Ceremony later in the evening.
The Awards aim to recognise businesses operating in Laos that demonstrate a strong commitment to responsible business conduct, and that contribute positively to economic development, environmental stewardship, and inclusive growth.
The initiative also serves to encourage wider adoption of sustainable and ethical business practices across the private sector.
The theme of the 2026 Awards focuses on two core pillars of responsible business: Natural Resource Management and Diversity and Inclusion.
With awards being handed out to SMEs and Larger Enterprises, the judges are assessing applications based on measurable impact, innovation, stakeholder engagement, and long-term sustainability.
The Lao Responsible Business Awards 2026 are jointly hosted by the European Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Laos (EuroCham Laos), the Australian Chamber of Commerce in Laos (AustCham Laos), the British Business Group Lao PDR, the Embassy of Canada in Laos, Civitas Co., Ltd., and the Lao National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LNCCI).
Financial or in-kind support for the event has been received from the European Union, the Australian Embassy in Laos, the British Embassy Vientiane, Lux Dev, and Katalyst Partners.
