About US

The International Commodities Show was founded by Maryana Stober and Mathilde de Mareuil, two professionals with deep experience in the global commodities industry.

Maryana Stober is an experienced trading and M&A lawyer with a strong track record in complex international transactions. She has developed extensive expertise in regulatory frameworks, contract negotiation, and risk management, advising clients across the global commodities sector.

Mathilde de Mareuil is the Founder and CEO of Shipping and Trading Network (STN), a Geneva-based company specialising in headhunting, financial introductions, and networking events for the global commodities sector. She is also the Founder of CommodityThursdays, a fast-growing networking platform with 8 hubs worldwide dedicated to shipping and commodities trading.

Maryana and Mathilde also serve as President and Vice-President of WISTA Switzerland (Women’s International Shipping and Trading Association), where they actively support and promote women in the shipping and trading industries.

Together, they saw the need for an event that would bring the entire ecosystem together — not just traders, but also banks, universities, and service providers who all play a critical role in the sector.

Their mission is to create a platform in Geneva where:Trading companies can exchange ideas and do business.

Banks and trade finance providers can connect with clients.

Universities and students gain direct exposure to the industry.

Professionals across levels — from juniors to senior executives — can meet, learn, and collaborate.

The Commodities Show is more than a conference. It is a meeting place for the global commodities community, positioned during Geneva’s Commodities Week to make the most of the city’s unique role as a hub for global trade.
