Introduction

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly moving beyond research and experimentation into manufacturing, services, healthcare, education, infrastructure, finance, logistics and public systems. Its greatest economic opportunity, however, may not lie only in creating new AI products—it lies in using AI to make existing businesses more productive, competitive, scalable and globally market-ready.

India has built one of the world's largest startup ecosystems, creating a growing pool of technology-led solutions capable of addressing real business and societal challenges.

At the same time, India's trade ecosystem is entering an important phase of global market expansion. The Government of India is pursuing FTAs and other trade arrangements while working with exporters and stakeholders to improve market access and export competitiveness.

The AI Innovation Summit will focus on AI Solutions, Partnerships and Measurable Outcomes.

Who should attend?

The Conclave is designed as a must-attend global platform bringing together senior Central and State Government officials, policymakers, diplomatic and Embassy representatives, exporters, investors, AI startups, incubators, SMEs, experts from leading Central Institutions and Multilateral Organisations, and thought leaders from academia, industry and civil society.

Our aim is to make Indian AI innovation a trusted and competitive force in the global economy.
