“Uniting entrepreneurs, investors, institutions, and industry leaders from India, Asia, Middle East and Europe to shape the future of international business.”
The India–Croatia Business Exchange Forum (ICBX) is a premier international platform dedicated to fostering trade, investment, innovation, and business collaboration between India, Croatia, and the wider European region.
ICBX Croatia: Building a New Bridge for Cross-Border Business
In 2026, ICBX – International Cross-Border Exchange Forum was launched in Split, Croatia with a simple vision: Connect. Collaborate. Trade.
The inaugural ICBX brought together business leaders and entrepreneurs from Croatia, India, Slovenia, Montenegro, Sweden, Austria and Saudi Arabia, creating a platform for focused conversations around real cross-border opportunities.
Beyond Business Networking
ICBX was created to go beyond traditional conferences and networking events. The objective is to identify opportunities, connect the right organisations and help conversations progress towards practical commercial partnerships.
The platform focuses on sectors including international trade, investment, renewable energy, technology, education, agriculture, sustainability, funding and international market entry.
Croatia’s position within the European Union and its growing international business ecosystem make it an interesting gateway for companies seeking opportunities across Europe. At the same time, markets such as India offer significant manufacturing capacity, technology, talent and commercial scale.
ICBX aims to help build the bridge between these markets.
From Connections to Trade
Following the launch of ICBX Croatia, the platform is expanding its focus towards year-round business engagement.
A key part of this initiative is ICBX Trade Opportunities — a curated platform through which verified buyers, suppliers, manufacturers and strategic partners can discover cross-border requirements and register their interest.
Opportunities may range from healthcare and humanitarian supplies to industrial materials, agriculture, food products, sustainability solutions, technology and renewable energy.
Rather than functioning as an open marketplace, ICBX seeks to facilitate credible introductions between businesses with genuine requirements and capabilities.
Croatia → India → EU → Global Markets
ICBX sees significant potential in connecting Croatian and European products and technologies with emerging international markets, while simultaneously providing credible Indian manufacturers and businesses with pathways into Croatia and the wider European Union.
This two-way approach is central to the ICBX philosophy.
Whether it is a Croatian company looking towards India, an Indian manufacturer exploring the EU, or an international investor seeking opportunities across markets, ICBX aims to provide a trusted environment in which those conversations can begin.
What’s Next for ICBX?
The launch in Croatia was the beginning.
Through its member network, trade opportunities, B2B engagement and international collaborations, ICBX will continue building connections between companies and decision-makers across borders.
Because international business does not begin with a transaction.
It begins with the right connection.
ICBX — Connect. Collaborate. Trade.
