In 2047, India will celebrate 100 years of independence. As the country approaches this historic milestone, it stands at a critical crossroads—powered by economic ambition, democratic ideals, regional influence, and a dynamic global diaspora.

To mark this moment, the Global India Conference, an initiative of the Global India Collective, will convene a bold gathering of leaders and changemakers to envision what India and its diaspora can become by 2047.

Held in Washington, D.C., on September 29–30, this two-day event will blend strategic dialogue with cultural celebration, bringing together more than 150 senior voices from the U.S. and India, including policymakers, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, academics, and community advocates.

Define India's Role in a Multipolar World

Explore India's strategic autonomy, regional partnerships (like the Quad and I2U2), and its leadership in the Global South.
