Hosted by the City of London Corporation in association with India Global Forum Supported by the Governments of India and UK
India – the Opportunity
India recently surpassed China as the world’s most populous country and is poised to become the fastest growing major global economy. Sustainable infrastructure is critical for India’s economic trajectory
- to balance the needs of its fast-growing population with its net zero climate commitments. The current budget provides a massive push, but significant challenges remain, underscoring the potential for private finance
and global partnerships to bridge this gap.

Week 2023, the Financing a Sustainable Future summit will evaluate the growing demand for green finance and identify key opportunities for investment and partnership to deliver sustainable infrastructure in India.
Who Attends – 120 senior decision-makers
- CEOs and other senior executives leading Indian infrastructure development and UK/City of London finance and advisory such as Arup, Mott Macdonald, Ola, Sun Group amongst others
- Ministers, policymakers and regulators from the UK and India
