'My Business Forum 2026' will be held on September 9–10, 2026, in St. Petersburg at the Expoforum venue. The event is organized by the Government of St. Petersburg and the Center for Entrepreneurship Development and Support of St. Petersburg (Operator 'My Business') with the support of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation.
The business program of the forum covers 8 thematic stages, reflecting current trends in SME development:
Main Stage — strategic vision and priorities for entrepreneurship development.
Networking Stage — nonstop networking, startup battles, and interactive formats.
Science Popularizers — practical experience and scientific thinking for business.
Neural Networks — practical application of AI in automation, analytics, marketing, and management.
Marketing — modern strategies for growth and client engagement.
Sales — scaling, funnels, and tools for increasing revenue.
Business and Government — support measures, regulation, and dialogue with the state.
AI-first — a new entrepreneurial standard where AI becomes the basis of business processes.
The forum's expo zone will feature small technology companies (STCs), startups, and leading organizations from Russia. To establish direct business connections between large and small businesses, a Supplier Exchange will be held at the forum. This tool has already proven its effectiveness: in 2025, St. Petersburg entrepreneurs concluded contracts worth over 10.08 billion rubles with major commercial and government clients through it.
