The 2026 GS1 General Assembly will take place in Warsaw, hosted by GS1 Poland. As GS1’s most important governance event, it brings together the GS1 Management Board and leaders from Member Organisations worldwide to align on strategic priorities and approve key decisions.
This year’s theme — Vision in action: Leadership that builds the future — focuses on turning Vision 2030 from ambition into impact, requiring strong leadership across the GS1 Management Board, local GS1 Boards, and Member Organisations.
We are very grateful GS1 Poland is hosting the GA week. And with nearly 50,000 companies in the GS1 community, GS1 Poland reflects sustained growth, strong industry engagement, and increasing global relevance.
See you in Warsaw — where vision becomes action!
