Reimagining Institutions. Reskilling India. Reaching Global.

For over 32 powerful editions, the World Education Summit (WES) has been India’s most influential platform for education dialogue, innovation, and reform. Hosted across leading cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Bahrain, Dubai, Malaysia, and more, WES has brought together over 2,000 education leaders, including vice-chancellors, policymakers, EdTech pioneers, and global academic thinkers, shaping the future of education in India and beyond.

.

At the 33rd edition in Delhi, the focus is exclusively on Higher Education—with a specially curated track that convenes over 200+ distinguished leaders from universities, institutes of national importance, private institutions, regulatory bodies, and global academic partnerships.

But the questions facing school leaders are evolving rapidly: Are we teaching for tests or for life? Are our classrooms ready for AI? Are our schools ready to scale innovation?

Today, higher education is no longer just about degrees—it’s about employability, innovation, entrepreneurship, internationalization, and lifelong learning.

This exclusive invite-only, two-day confluence will unite India’s top university leaders, government officials, researchers, EdTech pioneers, and global partners to discuss, debate and define the next frontiers in higher education.

Together, we’ll explore how India's higher education ecosystem can be reimagined as a driver of national growth, global impact, and academic excellence in the era of disruption

The experience was really good. We had a chance to expose our company in different countries. We got to meet delegates from different parts of the world, which was so useful. Also, we got the information that’s happening around the world, which was so useful for us as a company going forward

This is my first experience in the summit and I think it’s great because it’s gathering all the decision makers, schools, principals, and other activities around schools like companies, vendors. So I think it’s overall great.
