We are very pleased to announce that Singularity University Global, the Silicon Valley educational institution and business accelerator committed to creative positive social impact through exponential technologies, is holding its second summit in India in association with INK, on April 7-8, 2017 in Mumbai.

Following from the first ever SingularityU India Summit held last year in February, this year’s Summit will also enable participants to learn from top experts and gain insights on how life, society and industries will be disrupted and reshaped through emerging technologies.

Leaders from around the world and core faculty members of Singularity University will share their knowledge and expertise during the two-day Summit. We are proud to announce the initial line-up of speakers!
