Avant de partir
Arrive with the essentials sorted.
Airport & arrival
Check your itinerary for Techo International Airport (KTI). Confirm your pickup location with your hotel or driver.
Getting around
Save your hotel's map pin and address. Leave extra time between Koh Pich, central Phnom Penh and Chroy Changvar, especially during Summit movements.
Badges & access
Ask your delegation coordinator about accreditation and official transport. Confirm each side event separately; one event's badge does not imply access to another.
Pour les entreprises locales
Make a useful connection, then follow through.
Choose events that match your work, check registration with the organiser, and arrange meetings in advance. Bring a short company introduction and a clear next step.
The Summit is a diplomatic gathering. Participation does not guarantee meetings, contracts, procurement opportunities or official access.

How these places make the guide.
Anyone can suggest a place. Volunteer curators review suggestions, check practical details and step out of decisions where they have a connection to a business. Listings are alphabetical, not ranked. There are no paid placements.
Starter entries are researched from venue websites and are labelled as editorial research. They are not presented as personal volunteer endorsements. The maple leaf identifies a verified CanCham member business; it is not a quality rating.
