Preparations for the India AI Impact Summit and Expo began soon after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that India would host the next AI summit.
“We have started work on the expo. The entire summit, comprising the expo, will be held between February 16 and 20. Almost all technology companies in the country are participating. Many government departments and ministries will also take part,” he said.

The expo will be organised across approximately 75,000 square metres at Pragati Maidan.
Kumar said the event will also host sessions aimed at connecting start-ups with investors. Around 700 sessions are planned over the five days to discuss artificial intelligence and its broader impact.
Focus Areas: People, Planet and Progress
The India AI Impact Summit will be structured around three core pillars — People, Planet and Progress.
Discussions will focus on employment and skilling, sustainable and energy-efficient AI, and economic as well as social development.
The summit will feature seven thematic working groups, co-chaired by representatives from the Global North and Global South. These groups will present concrete deliverables, including proposals for AI Commons, trusted AI tools, shared compute infrastructure, and sector-specific compendiums of AI use cases.
