CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Lavasa Campus, Pune, is set to host TEDxChristULavasa 2026 on the 4th and 5th of May 2026, bringing together a distinguished lineup of voices that reflect the evolving narrative of India in a globalised world. Curated under the theme “The India Equation: How a Civilization of Nothing Created Everything”, this edition of TEDxChristULavasa seeks to explore the dynamic interplay between tradition and transformation, identity and innovation and local realities with global impact. The event will convene an exclusive and diverse audience of approximately 100 attendees. Featuring speakers from across sectors including Arts, Indian Heritage, Defence, Youth, Public Reforms & Social Advocacy. The platform aims to spotlight narratives that challenge convention, amplify underrepresented voices and inspire actionable change. With representation at its core, TEDxChristULavasa 2026 emphasises the importance of inclusivity and the power of storytelling in shaping a more equitable future.
As a globally recognised platform under the umbrella of TEDx, the event aligns with TED’s mission of “Ideas Worth Spreading,” while contextualising it within India’s unique socio-cultural and constitutional landscape. TEDxChristULavasa 2026 promises to be more than just an event. It is a confluence of ideas, identities and insights that aim to position India not just as a participant, but as a thought leader on the global stage.
