India Global Week
India Global Week is one of the biggest international events on India’s globalisation. Its objective is to re-energise and ignite optimism, but also inspire action. From geopolitics to business, arts & culture to emerging technologies, banking and finance, pharma, defence and security, social Impact and the all-important diaspora dividend, it aims to bring about an action-oriented focus to global deliberations.
India Inc. Group–the UK-headquartered media house behind flagship publications ‘India Global Business’ and the recently-launched diaspora news network ‘iGlobal’ are the event organisers.
