Zee Media is set to bring India’s leadership story to a global stage with the Global Innovation & Leadership Summit 2025, an international initiative that will take place across two prestigious venues in London.
The two-day event, presented by Zee Bharat in partnership with Zee Uttar Pradesh Uttarakhand and WION, aims to honour visionary Indian entrepreneurs and MSME leaders who are shaping the country’s growing global impact.
According to a press release, the summit will unfold on December 12 and 13 across the House of Lords and the Courthouse Soho, bringing together nearly 30 distinguished MSME leaders, policy voices, and global dignitaries. The initiative is designed as a platform to recognise changemakers who have built with purpose, led with integrity, and contributed to India’s expanding influence on the world stage.
The inaugural day at the House of Lords on December 12 will begin with a ceremonial lighting of the lamp, reflecting the essence of India’s heritage and progress. An opening address by Santosh Kumar, Editor of Zee Bharat, will set the tone for a series of conversations on India’s innovation-driven growth story. A senior representative from the UK Commission is expected to highlight the deepening Indo-UK partnership and entrepreneurial collaboration. One of the key moments of the day will be a special felicitation ceremony conducted by Members of the House of Lords, Lord Rami Ranger and Baroness Sandip Verma, honouring select Indian leaders for their exemplary contributions to business and society.
The discussions will continue on December 13 at the Courthouse Soho, focusing on leadership, sustainability, India’s global footprint, and cross-border partnerships. The evening’s proceedings will open with a keynote address by Santosh Kumar, followed by participation from prominent dignitaries including Darshan Grewal, Former Mayor of London; Ramesh Arora, CEO of Signature Hospitality Group; Suresh Mangalagiri, General Secretary of BJP (UK); Krish Kumar Sureshchandra Raval (Baron Raval, OBE); British lawyer Arif Aajakia; and businessman DK Tyagi. The summit will conclude with another round of felicitations and a gala dinner celebrating collaboration and entrepreneurial vision.
With the Global Innovation & Leadership Summit 2025, Zee Media reinforces its commitment to elevating India’s leadership narrative before a global audience, recognising individuals and enterprises that exemplify innovation, resilience, and forward-looking leadership.
