The India AI Impact Summit 2026 is the first-ever summit on AI in the Global South. It was held from February 16th to 20th 2026 at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi.
Our hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has announced this AI Impact summit during his visit to the France AI Action Summit. He gave the mantra of “Sarvajana Hitaya, Sarvajana Sukhaya” for this summit. The meaning behind these magical Sanskrit words is welfare for all and happiness for all.
