India Week® 2026
India Week® is the most significant annual celebration of bilateral economic ties between the UK and India, taking place in London and elsewhere, every year.
India continues to lead global economic growth, outpacing other major economies. As the world grapples with the realities of a multipolar order, including new external trade shocks like the US tariffs on Indian goods, India has demonstrated remarkable economic resilience and a strategic pivot toward deepening key partnerships. This environment has only accelerated the alignment between the UK and India.
The Comprehensive Economic and Trade Partnership is now negotiated but needs Parliamentary ratification before both countries start seeing benefit. Backed by the ambitious India-UK Vision 2035 Roadmap, the UK and India are accelerating their dynamic partnership. This shift is not just about trade numbers; it's about seizing opportunities and fixing shared challenges across vital sectors: technology, advanced manufacturing, and financial services.
India Week® is an annual get-together of change-makers, policy and business leaders for high-level discussions on pertinent topics. India Week offers a series of events from Ideas for India® conference on policy, business and economics; to the Film Conclave, focused on the film financing. It concludes with an elegant black-tie dinner, capping off a week of impactful activities. In 2025, over 1,200 delegates attended the Week, making it the largest such series of events in the UK of the year.
