India Today Conclave is back with another edition which is going to take place on March 17 and 18, 2023 at Taj Palace Hotel, New Delhi.
This year, the conclave is celebrating the completion of 20 years, bringing together speakers from across the globe to the platform.
In the past, the Conclave stage has been graced by the leaders including Narendra Modi, APJ Abdul Kalam, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Bill Gates, Imran Khan, Sachin Tendulkar, Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Mukesh Ambani, Neeraj Chopra, and other stalwarts from across the world.
Over the two decades, not only have there been annual events, there have also been regional editions of India Today Conclave, propelled by its immense national success.
India Today is set to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its Conclave this year with the theme ‘India Moment’, bringing to light how amid global challenges such as wars, recessions, polarized polities, and the climate crisis, India has emerged as a beacon of hope.
A recent Morgan Stanley report reveals that by 2027, India is poised to become the world's third largest economy and drive 1/5th of global growth. However, the impact of this "India Moment" goes beyond just statistics, as India's stewardship of the G20 presents a significant opportunity for it to influence geopolitics, energy transition, technology, and the international conversation on development, equitable growth, justice and more.
All this and more will be tackled during this year’s edition of India Today Conclave, with speakers such as Union ministers Amit Shah, S Jaishankar, Kiren Rijiju, Smriti Irani, Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, Rockstar political philosopher Michael Sandel, former Union ministers P Chidambaram and Shashi Tharoor, actors Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor and many more.
