BGD Young Voices Cohort of 2026 has assembled

We are excited to announce that 37 outstanding students have been selected for this year’s Young Voices program. Young Voices is a diverse group of students from the Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM), and this year, we welcomed students from 24 different countries.

Berlin Global Dialogue empowers the leaders of tomorrow and promotes dialogue not only between business and government but also between different generations. Young Voices attend the annual Berlin Global Dialogue summit as regular participants, with full access to sessions and side events. This allows them to fully immerse themselves in the conference program. In addition, they participate in a specifically curated curriculum designed to enhance their experience. “I am motivated by the opportunity to engage with an exceptional cohort of young leaders while learning directly from experienced global decision-makers. BGD offers a rare platform to challenge ideas, build meaningful alliances, and translate dialogue into action. I am particularly drawn to its focus on advancing collaboration across sectors to address complex global challenges”, says Siobhan Finan from Canada.

We will spotlight each Young Voice individually in the weeks to come, sharing their stories, aspirations, and the impact they aim to create. Make sure to stay tuned via our LinkedIn channel for more updates. You can check out all the Young Voices 2026 on this page.
