More Than a Summit—A Catalyst for Global Transformation

Lokakṣema 2026 represents the premier platform where governments, industry leaders, researchers, and communities unite to solve humanity's most pressing challenges through responsible AI innovation.

Organized by SHV Groups and powered by Utopian Space, we're building bridges between research and reality, policy and practice, vision and action.
