Investors will have a rare opportunity to hear directly from management teams of companies listed on exchanges in Zurich, Madrid, London, Singapore, Sydney, and Toronto at The Global Markets Forum (Hybrid), a two-day event on October 7 and 8, 2026. Hosted by Virtual Investor Conferences and marketed by B2i Digital, Inc., the forum aims to bridge the gap between public companies and sophisticated retail investors, according to David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital.
“These teams are making the effort to talk to sophisticated retail investors, not just the institutions,” Shapiro said. “You should make the effort to schedule a time.” The event underscores a growing trend of companies seeking broader investor audiences beyond traditional institutional channels.
Day 1, on October 7, will be hybrid, with management teams presenting in person at the OTC Markets Group office in New York or remotely. Day 2, on October 8, will be fully virtual. The forum covers diverse sectors including mining and battery materials, biotechnology, digital health, technology, financial services, and energy and environment. Presenting companies include Kuya Silver Corp., MindMaze Therapeutics, Sulnox Group Plc, Delta Gold Technologies PLC, Curatis Holding AG, Oryzon Genomics SA, Making Science Group S.A., DocMorris AG, First Class Metals plc, Reig Jofre, S.A., First Phosphate Corp., MetaOptics Ltd., Cobalt Blue Holdings Limited, CapForce Inc., Nouveau Monde Graphite Inc., Phio Pharmaceuticals Corp., Deep Isolation Nuclear, Inc., Cerrado Gold Inc., Good Purpose Investments Inc., and Matternet, Inc.
Each company will present live with audience Q&A, and replays will be available on B2i Digital and OTC Markets YouTube channels.

For investors, the event offers a chance to engage with companies that are often overlooked by larger institutions, potentially uncovering undervalued opportunities. The hybrid format also allows for face-to-face interactions, which Shapiro emphasized as crucial for deeper understanding. As global markets become more interconnected, such forums play a vital role in democratizing access to corporate leadership and fostering informed investment decisions.
