The NDTV World Summit 2026 is preparing for its upcoming sessions, with organizers announcing a diverse roster of speakers from the diplomatic and business sectors. Among the confirmed participants are Jean-Eric Paquet, the European Union Ambassador to India and Ambassador-designate to Bhutan, and Jasper Wieck, a veteran German diplomat with extensive experience in the foreign service since 1994.

In addition to diplomatic representation, the summit will feature sessions focused on domestic economic growth. Nikhil Kamath, the founder of the brokerage firm Zerodha, is scheduled to speak on the first day of the event, October 22. His session, titled "A Billion Possibilities: Building India’s Next Economy," is slated for 1:10 pm.

While the summit aims to bridge international policy and local business innovation, the current reporting focuses primarily on individual speaker profiles. The announcements highlight the professional backgrounds of the participants, emphasizing Paquet’s three decades of public service and Wieck’s diplomatic history across various nations, including Russia and Azerbaijan. As the summit approaches, further details regarding the full agenda and additional speakers are expected to be released by the organizers.
