Agenda
Four priority areas were laid out as topics to be discussed for the 2016 APEC summit. These are Human Capital Development, Upgrading SMEs, Regional Food Market, and Regional Economic Integration Agenda. These subjects were chosen to built upon on the discussions from the previous APEC summit in the Philippines.[2]
Branding
In January 29, 2016, the Peruvian President Ollanta Humala said that the theme of the APEC Summit is "Quality Growth and Human Development".[3] The architecture of the ancient city of Caral serves as the inspiration for the official logo of the APEC summit.[4]
