India Announces World’s Largest AI Impact Summit

On January 31, 2026, the Indian government officially announced the India AI Impact Summit 2026. The event will take place in New Delhi from February 16 to 20, gathering industry leaders from over 100 countries.

This is a bid for global leadership. India positions itself as a neutral ground for dialogue between the West and the Global South. The agenda includes not only regulation but also the democratization of technology access. New Delhi aims to convert its demographic dividend into the status of the "world's AI solutions factory."
