30th Annual Wharton India Economic Forum

Overview
For three decades, the Wharton India Economic Forum (WIEF) has stood as a premier platform uniting industry leaders, policymakers, investors, scholars, and students to explore India’s economic evolution and growing global influence. Since its launch in 1996, WIEF has hosted some of the most impactful voices shaping India’s growth story — fostering dialogue at the intersection of leadership, innovation, and nation-building.

In 2026, WIEF proudly celebrates its landmark 30th Annual Forum, returning to Mumbai for a special anniversary gathering at The St. Regis on January 10, 2026.

India stands at a transformative juncture as political, economic, technological, and sustainability shifts redefine its position on the world stage. This year’s conference will spotlight India’s journey to date while charting the next chapter of opportunity — examining business innovation, macroeconomic trends, technology leadership, investing, energy transition, and global competitiveness.

Attendees can expect a full day of keynotes, panel discussions, and fireside conversations featuring senior leaders from government, industry, venture capital, private equity, and social impact sectors, alongside students and alumni from Wharton and beyond.

Join us for a landmark celebration of 30 years of dialogue shaping India’s future — and be part of the conversation defining what comes next.

Note: The agenda is currently being finalized and minor changes may occur.
