PM Modi, Lankan PM Harini Amarasuriya, Rishi Sunak, Tony Abbott to grace NDTV World Summit

The NDTV World Summit 2025 will mark an extraordinary moment in global dialogue, bringing together some of the most influential voices of our time. Among them are PM Narendra Modi, Harini Amarasuriya, Prime Minister of Sri Lanka; Rishi Sunak, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom; and Tony Abbott, former Prime Minister of Australia. Their presence is a rare occasion where two serving Prime Ministers and two former Prime Ministers will share the stage - a powerful reflection of the Summit’s stature and importance in shaping the most urgent and important conversations of our time.

The summit will be held on 17th & 18th October 2025 in New Delhi.

At a time when the world is negotiating volatility, uncertainty, and profound transformation, it is here that leaders, thinkers, innovators, and cultural icons will gather to deliberate on the issues that define our era. From geopolitics to technology, from ecology to culture, from the architecture of economies to the imagination of societies, the NDTV World Summit seeks to move beyond analysis — to reimagination, reinvention, and renewal.

The theme of the 2025 edition, ‘Edge of the Unknown: Risk. Resolve. Renewal’. 

Alongside two serving Prime Ministers and two former Prime Ministers, it will be a gathering of business architects, innovators, cultural figures, and moral thinkers. 

Rahul Kanwal, CEO & Editor-in-Chief, NDTV, said: “The NDTV World Summit 2025 is a crucible of influence where ideas, imagination, and intention converge. The presence of two serving Prime Ministers and two former Prime Ministers, alongside a wide constellation of global leaders and changemakers, is a powerful testimony to the urgency the Summit creates. It reflects India’s position at the heart of the world’s conversation and its growing role in shaping a collective future.”
