This year’s report features all the data needed to understand the global roadshow landscape, showing where companies travel, which brokers they use and the extent to which different management personnel attend. New for 2026, the report also features analysis of the proportion of roadshows that occur within a company’s region.
Click to read IR Impact Research Report – Global Roadshow Report 2026This hive of roadshow activity is happening in a very different world to when we first began asking about where you were traveling, which members of the C-suite were in attendance and which brokers helped you put on these vital events.
Transformational moments from financial crises to roadshow-changing regulation like Mifid II, the impact of Covid-19, the emergence of AI as an IR tool and a new era of volatility have all made their marks on the roadshow scene.
All of these factors make roadshows an even more important part of the corporate calendar.
Alongside the numbers, we also share exclusive tips, tricks, insights and anecdotes – including an investor request for an Olympic-sized swimming pool – from award-winning IR professionals around the world. They share their views on everything from the value of IR-only roadshows, to the qualities a CEO brings versus the CFO. They also reveal their favorite cities to visit and give their thoughts on what makes for a top-notch roadshow.
