The 17th Hindustan Times Leadership Summit
ABOUT HT LEADERSHIP SUMMIT
The Hindustan Times Leadership Summit was launched in 2003 to enhance the level of discourse on critical issues, encourage interaction among leaders in important areas and present international quality thought- platforms aimed at solutions. The last sixteen Summits have been outstanding successes with attendance by leaders from India and across the world. The audience comprises of senior politicians, bureaucrats, diplomats, business executives, thinkers, commentators and analysts. Today, the Summit has grown in stature to be counted amongst the most prestigious conferences in India.
This year, at the two-day Hindustan Times Leadership Summit, political leaders, corporate heads and torchbearers from various fields will discuss, debate, ideate and hold ‘Conversations for a Better Tomorrow’, the theme of this year’s event.
As the world prepares to step into another decade and India stands at the cusp of major transformation, different kinds of tomorrows are being shaped in every field. In the kitchen where soon robo-chefs will rustle up meals and food will be 3D printed; in business, where unicorns are raising their heads and social media has turned into a lucrative business platform; on the silver screen where content is becoming the undisputed king; and on the drawing board where fashion is writing its own futuristic rules - tomorrow seems exciting and calls for a long, meaningful conversation. Perhaps it is in these conversations at the 2019 Summit, that we will find answers to some of our questions and a framework for a better tomorrow.
