2026 in review

Every city. Every event. One year on the road.

From Dakar in January to Monterrey in October, this is what FPP's in-person recruitment events looked like in 2026: the dates, the venues, the number of institutions in the room and a short video from each city. So you know exactly what to expect when you join us in 2027.

What a year with FPP looks like

Each card below is one afternoon in one city: a hotel ballroom, a line of students and parents at the door, and a room of universities, colleges and business schools meeting them face to face. The format is the same wherever we go. Pre-registered students, a short briefing for exhibitors, four to five hours of fair, and a report with the data the day after.

We run our own The Student World EXPO tours in Brazil, Spanish-speaking Latin America and India, and we deliver official national programmes for governments and associations: Study in Canada for the Government of Canada in Africa and Morocco, Destino Francia for Campus France in Colombia, Study in Europe for the European Union in India, and the Italian Days on Higher Education in South America.

Also in 2026

Around the fairs, FPP delivered smaller formats that do not get a card above but matter to the institutions that used them.

Information sessions, Latin America and Brazil

One institution, one room, students who registered to hear that school only. Hosted in hotels in February and March for business schools and universities from France, Spain, Italy, Portugal and Australia.

High school visits and B2B days

Half-day and full-day visits to high schools before or after the fairs, and networking days for exhibitors: with counsellors in Dakar, Abidjan, Douala, Nairobi, Kampala, Lagos, Port Harcourt and Accra, and with Indian partners at the Study in Europe B2B day in New Delhi.

Government fairs delivered for partners

Feria de Universidades Españolas en Colombia with SEPIE in Medellín, Cali and Bogotá in March (38 Spanish universities, 5,200 students registered), and the Study in Italy Fair in Hong Kong in February (11 Italian institutions), both organised by FPP on behalf of the national agencies.

Still to come in 2026

The year closes in Morocco with the Salon Étudier au Canada, delivered for the Government of Canada: three cities in five days, with Canadian universities and colleges meeting French-speaking students and their families.
