About the Conference

The vision of Viksit Bharat@2047 allows for a unique opportunity to build a new economic architecture for Bharat by bringing together innovation, entrepreneurship, and policy leadership, while also mainstreaming development. As Bharat endeavors to become a developed nation by 2047, commerce is a key part of the equation, and entrepreneurship will be critical to achieve success, specifically in the context of the digital, urban, and rural ecosystems.

This international conference aims to explore how Artificial Intelligence, digital transformation, sustainable development, marketing strategies, human resource innovation, and leadership in policy and education can catalyze innovation and entrepreneurship in both urban and rural Bharat. With the deployment of digital technology and the growth of e-commerce platforms, the expansion of strategic marketing approaches, innovative HR practices, and the growing engagement of MSMEs and startups, we clearly have a significant opportunity for inclusive and equitable development.

The conference also draws inspiration from the revolutionary spirit of Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Shaheed Rajguru, and Shaheed Sukhdev, whose ideals of courage, vision, and collective leadership embody the essence of entrepreneurship, innovation, and ethical nation-building. Their commitment to self-reliance and social transformation resonates with the objectives of this conference, reminding us that the same spirit which ignited India’s freedom must now fuel its journey toward a Viksit Bharat @ 2047.

The conference also emphasizes the role of women practitioners, the relevance of the National Education Policy 2020 for entrepreneurial education, and the importance of sustainability in business practices, along with the significance of strategic marketing and human capital management as they relate to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

By means of academic discourse, contributions to policymaking, and industry involvement, the conference offers research insights on how to engage with challenging and uncertain economic contexts to create resilient economic ecosystems. We'd like to bring together scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students from diverse disciplinary backgrounds to contribute to Bharat's journey to Viksit Bharat@2047.
