​The Forum provides a neutral, high-level setting for European and Indian leaders to engage in constructive dialogue and explore opportunities for cooperation across business, innovation, and economic development.

​The discussions will focus on high-level economic cooperation, including the rebuilding of global supply chains, artificial intelligence, data and digital infrastructure, and the future outlook for Europe–India collaboration.
