This annual global ideas platform will be held between 17th & 18th March 2016 in New Delhi featuring eminent speakers from India and across the globe.
New Delhi, March 04, 2016: The India Today Conclave, where the sharpest minds from across the globe converge at a forum to discuss and debate issues from around the world, is back. And like previous years, the India Today Group's signature event, to be held in the Capital on March 17 and March 18, is likely to stir and fuel new ways of thinking.
This year, the idea of clubbing power with play means we are challenging tried and tested notions and reinforcing the idea that the future belongs to those who dare to mix strength with subtlety, inspiration with imagination, passion with playfulness. The Conclave will provide an open platform for communication amongst the finest global experts, be they thought leaders who analyse our age, politicians who determine our headlines, policy makers who shape our future, or entertainers who add some star power to our mundane existence. Star speakers will debate how we will live, eat, work, entertain ourselves and what the future will look, taste and feel like.
The signature event aims at charting a bold new future through free and honest exchange of ideas by bringing together the brightest thought leaders with their ideas, arguments and experiences that allow us to renew, reinvent and re-imagine our present and future.
Speaking on the occasion, Conclave Director Ms. Kalli Purie, said, “This edition of the India Today Conclave is firmly rooted in this millennium and looks ahead rather than at the past. The multi-sensory experience across two days will introduce new ways of communicating, interacting and debating.
