⚡ This is a pre-registration page. Registering here puts you on the priority list: you hear dates, venue and ticket details first, with early access to passes before public release. Your spot at the Summit is confirmed once passes go live and you book yours.
From 4 cities to one stage: Building a Global Movement for Change
Since 2025, AndPurpose Forums across New Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai and Hyderabad have convened 1,000+ leaders, 100+ speakers and 700+ organisations, generating 800M+ in media reach.
India's most curated sustainability and social impact forum series now culminates in a national and global summit in New Delhi.
The themes: all 17 SDGs
Every session, exhibit and pitch at the Summit maps to the Sustainable Development Goals, from climate action, clean energy, circular economy and sustainable cities to health, education, gender equality, livelihoods and life on land and below water. If your work moves an SDG, there is a stage, a stall or a room for it here.

Why India, Why Now?
The world's sustainability goals will be won or lost in India: the fastest-growing major economy, the first country to mandate CSR by law, and the voice of the Global South. Solutions built here are built frugally, for a billion people, and they travel to the emerging world in a way solutions designed elsewhere cannot. The Summit is hosted in New Delhi, home to 100+ diplomatic missions and multilateral institutions, where India meets that world.
