Bharat Digital Samvad

20th May 2026 | 9:30 am onwards

India built the world's most ambitious digital public infrastructure. It exports software to every continent. It is home to deep-tech innovators, sovereign compute builders, and AI pioneers.

And yet — its cloud runs on foreign servers. Its hardware depends on foreign supply chains. Its most sensitive data sits under foreign legal regimes.

That changes now.

B-DIA Bharat Digital Samvad: The Foundation Forum is the formal launch of the Bharath Digital Infrastructure Association (BDIA) — a not-for-profit body representing over 50 Indian technology companies across the full digital stack: software, cloud, semiconductors, AI, cybersecurity, Digital Public Infrastructure, and critical data systems.

On 20th May 2026, 125 of India's most consequential digital stakeholders — from government ministries and industry leaders to academia and strategic institutions — will convene to build. Three structured policy panels. Concrete frameworks. Actionable outputs.

From sovereign compute to cloud governance to domestic market access — this Forum will lay the institutional foundation for India's full-stack digital sovereignty.

Digital Swaraj is not a political slogan. It is India's next infrastructure imperative — and this is where it begins.
