India is expected to project itself as a major global player at the 2026 World Economic Forum’s ( WEF) Annual Meeting in Davos, where global leaders will gather amid economic uncertainty, geopolitical tension, and rapid technology change. With a strong delegation of government officials and industry leaders, India aims to highlight its economic resilience, reform momentum, and long-term investment potential.
The WEF meeting, beginning January 19 in Davos, Switzerland, will include participation from Indian Ministers, senior bureaucrats, top business executives, and representatives from several state governments. Industry leaders believe India’s presence at Davos reflects growing global confidence in its economic trajectory despite a challenging international environment.
According to industry experts, India is increasingly being viewed not merely as a future opportunity but as a current growth engine for the global economy. Strong domestic demand, continued policy reforms, and large-scale infrastructure investments have strengthened India’s macroeconomic fundamentals. Sectors such as manufacturing, digital technology, renewable energy, and sustainability are expected to be key focus areas during discussions with global investors.
The global backdrop for the meeting remains complex, with concerns around slowing growth in advanced economies, supply chain realignments, and geopolitical conflicts. In this context, India is positioning itself as a stable and attractive destination for long-term investments. Business leaders note that India’s emphasis on ease of doing business, digital public infrastructure, and innovation-driven growth has enhanced its global standing.
Experts note that India’s demographic advantage and expanding consumer market enhance its appeal to multinational companies seeking diversification. As global capital seeks reliable growth destinations, India’s story at Davos is expected to centre on opportunity, resilience, and sustained economic expansion.
