Conference Details

The global order is witnessing a paradigm shift driven by rapid advancements in digital technologies, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and cybersecurity, where power is increasingly defined by technological capability, data control, and digital resilience rather than traditional military or economic strength alone. In this emerging New World Order, nations are competing for technological supremacy through investments in AI, quantum computing, and advanced communication systems to strengthen economic growth, strategic autonomy, and geopolitical influence. AI has become a transformative force across sectors such as defense, healthcare, finance, and governance, enhancing decision-making and operational efficiency. Simultaneously, growing dependence on digital systems has intensified cyber threats, making cybersecurity a critical pillar of national security and global stability. The rise of cyber warfare, data governance challenges, and debates on privacy and cross-border data flows further highlight the complex relationship between technology and geopolitics. For India, initiatives such as Digital India, Atmanirbhar Bharat, and the National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence reflect its commitment to leveraging digital innovation for inclusive growth, global competitiveness, and leadership in shaping a secure, open, and inclusive digital ecosystem.
