At a time when technology, geopolitics, capital and society are rapidly changing, The Times Group’s ET NOW Global Business Summit (GBS) 2026 will bring together some of the world’s most influential leaders in New Delhi. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will grace Day 1 of the summit, underscoring the importance of the platform in shaping India’s and the world’s economic future.
The summit will be held on February 13 and 14 at Taj Palace, New Delhi, under the theme: “A Decade of Disruption. A Century of Change.”
This year’s theme reflects the massive changes taking place across the world - from rapid technological advances and geopolitical shifts to sustainability challenges and new models of governance.
The summit will focus on key issues such as:
More than a discussion platform, GBS positions itself as a forum where global leaders debate real challenges and explore long-term solutions.
The idea is to move beyond discussions and toward action — where policy vision meets business strategy.
The summit marks what organisers describe as a defining moment. As one decade of disruption ends, a new century of decisions begins. GBS 2026 aims to help shape that next phase of global growth.
Apart from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, several senior leaders and global figures will attend Day 1, including:
Several other global economists, CEOs, investors and policymakers from institutions such as the IMF, World Bank, and leading multinational companies will also participate.
With Prime Minister Modi’s presence and a strong global lineup, GBS 2026 is set to be one of Asia’s most influential leadership gatherings, focusing on how nations and businesses can turn disruption into long-term advantage.
