India’s artificial intelligence sector is moving beyond experimentation as startups and enterprises actively deploy AI across various applications, from enhancing consumer experiences to driving product innovation.
The Indian AI market is projected to reach $126 billion by 2030, potentially impacting the GDP by $1.7 trillion by 2035. However, effectively executing AI strategies tailored to the Indian market remains a challenge.
To address this, Inc42 is hosting the Inc42 AI Summit 2026 on May 28, 2026, at The Sheraton Grand, Bengaluru. The invite-only summit will gather 600 founders, CXOs, and investors to discuss successful AI implementations in India and strategies for turning challenges into competitive advantages.
The summit will feature sessions and discussions led by industry leaders focusing on AI deployment in sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, supply chain, logistics, fraud detection, and automation.
The AI Summit 2026 aims to bridge the gap between AI innovation and practical application in the Indian context. It is designed for those actively implementing AI solutions, providing insights for navigating one of the world’s most complex markets.
The summit will include two stages: the Main Stage, where successful AI operators will share insights on scaling AI projects, and the Build Stage, which will focus on making AI work within India’s operational environment, including engineering for local average contract values, building vernacular products, navigating regulations, and distributing across Tier II and III markets.
Panel discussions will cover topics such as building and scaling agentic AI systems, the impact of AI on e-commerce conversion, AI-led fintech stacks, and investor perspectives on AI deals.
Speakers from leading AI-driven companies, including CoRover.ai, Gnani.ai, Open Financial Technologies, MoEngage, INDmoney, and Zepto, will participate in the event.
Attendees will gain access to ecosystem insights, emerging trends, and opportunities for collaboration. The summit aims to provide both strategic clarity and tactical frameworks for immediate implementation.
The Inc42 AI Summit 2026 is tailored for those actively building, deploying, or funding AI in India. It offers a focused environment for building relationships with potential partners, customers, and investors.
