Bharat Mandapam: India's Global Stage for AI Impact Summit and Beyond

• Bharat Mandapam, India's state-of-the-art IECC in New Delhi, is hosting the India AI Impact Summit 2026.
• Built on historic Pragati Maidan, the venue's name 'Bharat Mandapam' signifies India and a public discussion forum, inspired by Anubhav Mandapam.
• Its design, inspired by the Yamuna River, features an elliptical, conch-shaped form symbolizing equality and inclusivity.
• With a main hall seating 7,000, it surpasses the Sydney Opera House's capacity and includes a 3,000-seat amphitheatre and six exhibition halls.
• Inaugurated by PM Modi in July 2023, it hosted the G20 Summit just 45 days later and now a major global AI gathering.
