50 Days to the First World Technology Summit

Why Technology, Science, and Innovation Matter

— by Paul J. Foster, Founder and Executive Chair of the World Technology Group

Fifty days from now, leaders, innovators, and changemakers from around the world will gather in India for the first-ever World Technology Summit. More than a conference, this moment marks the birth of a global stage where technology, science, and innovation (TSI) come together with purpose—to imagine and to build the future.

We chose India as the starting point for this journey with intent. Nowhere reflects the spirit of transformation more vividly than India—home to one of the world’s fastest-growing digital economies, a young and ambitious population, and a national commitment to India Vision 2030. India stands not only as a host but as a symbol of what is possible when innovation and aspiration align.

Our partnership with MIT World Peace University in Pune reflects this conviction. Their legacy of scholarship, innovation, and values-based leadership makes them the ideal collaborators to ensure that this Summit is not just about ideas exchanged but about futures shaped. Together, we are advancing the purpose of the World Technology Group: to connect nations, industries, and communities, and to ensure that TSI serves all of humanity.

The challenges before us are profound. Will artificial intelligence accelerate inclusion—or deepen divides? Can digital infrastructure uplift every community, not just the privileged few? How do we embed sustainability into every breakthrough, so progress is measured not only by speed and scale but also by responsibility and care?

At the World Technology Summit 2025 India, we will not only explore these questions—we will act on them. WT Summit 2025 India will deliver more than dialogue. There will be a call-to-action, launching new initiatives, bold announcements, and a concluding communiqué: a collective pledge to move innovation forward with purpose, inclusivity, and courage. Perhaps, at WT Summit 2025 India, our mission will shine in its brightest form—on stage, with some of the world’s next great innovators showing us what human ingenuity truly looks like.

As we look toward Pune, toward India, and toward the future, we are reminded of why we exist. The World Technology Group has a singular mission: to Celebrate Human Ingenuity. In 50 days, we will do just that—launching a new era where technology, science, and innovation form the bridge between what is and what can be.
