The two-day event will bring together world leaders, policymakers, business leaders, technology experts and other prominent voices. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will headline the NDTV World Summit 2026, which will be held in New Delhi on October 22 and 23.
The theme of this year’s summit is “A World Between Orders” where the focus will be on how the world is changing and how countries are dealing with new challenges.
The world today is negotiating the space in between a period in which inherited structures continue to matter, even as new centres of influence, new economic ambitions and new ideas of sovereignty begin to alter the terms on which the global system operates,” according to a press statement released by NDTV. “The theme for this year reflects a reality that is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. PM Modi, who has also attended the previous two editions of the summit, will set the stage for the discussions. The talks will cover global strategy, geopolitics, business, economy, technology and several other key issues. The summit will bring together prominent voices from different fields. These include Nepal’s Federal Minister of Finance Dr Swarnim Wagle, Reserve Bank of India Governor Sanjay Malhotra, Swami Sarvapriyananda, Minister and Spiritual Leader at the Vedanta Society of New York, Zerodha founder Nikhil Kamath and futurist and AI specialist Mike Walsh. The NDTV World Summit has brought together important global voices in its previous editions. The last edition featured two sitting Prime Ministers and two former Prime Ministers – Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Sri Lankan Prime Minister Dr Harini Amarasuriya, former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott.
