The Summit will be inaugurated by Hon’ble Prime Minister of India.

Events during the week will see diverse groups – start-ups, academicians, corporations, policy analysts, NGOs and the government, as well as the civil society, engage in conversations on the mobility landscape, future possibilities and preparedness of the country towards meeting the opportunities and challenges. The programs will address disruptive changes in the mobility space.
