ICMC will bring together hundreds of senior figures and creators from Israel’s and the world’s cultural industries. The lectures, panels, workshops, and live showcases are expected to spark international collaborations, shared strategies for combating boycotts, and new connections between creators and cultural leaders from around the world.

ICMC offers its International guests a week long of Israeli cultural inspiration. From March 15- 19, 2026 international guests will experience dozens of groundbreaking Israeli artists across all fields of culture and art through daytime and nighttime events, visits to major cultural institutions, and focused workshops. The main event, a two-day conference aimed to break the cultural boycott, will take place on March 17-18 in Israel's main convention center, Expo Tel Aviv.

ICMC will serve not only as a platform for dialogue and knowledge exchange; the presence of hundreds of global opinion leaders and their direct encounters with Israeli creators will generate significant outcomes that will strengthen Israel’s cultural community in the face of cultural boycotts:

• International exposure and the launch of collaborations between hundreds of Israeli creators and global decision-makers

• Promotion of legislation providing economic and legal support to Israeli creatives targeted by cultural boycotts

• A platform for presenting research on the extent and severity of the global cultural boycott on Israel

   

Awards for advancing Israeli culture worldwide: The conference will honor 10 leading international figures who have significantly contributed to spreading Israeli culture.

Launch of an artist fellowship program: ICMC will unveil a new fund providing support for Israeli creators looking to enter the international market and overcome barriers created by the cultural boycott.
