We are delighted to welcome Karine Szenberg, Executive Vice Chair at Schroders (@Schroders), as a speaker at the Capital Frontiers Forum during UK–India Week 2026, taking place 22-26 June 2026.

As India cements its position as the world's fourth-largest economy, a critical question remains: is its growing economic significance being adequately reflected in global investment portfolios?

Karine will join the discussion on 'India in Global Portfolios: Turning Momentum into Investment', exploring how investors are approaching India across asset classes, the role of global capital allocators in facilitating flows, and what it will take to convert strong macroeconomic fundamentals into sustained investment at scale.

At a time when global investors are reassessing growth opportunities and capital allocation strategies, this conversation will examine India's place in the portfolios of the future.

Transforming an economy means looking beyond established hubs to unlock the latent potential of regions once considered off-limits to capital.

Speaking at the IGF Mumbai 2026 Leaders Dinner, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis (@CMOMaharashtra) shared a striking example of this grit in action. He said that five years ago, suggesting heavy industrial investment in the Gadchiroli district in Maharashtra would have been dismissed. Today, the region is absorbing roughly ₹3 Lakh Crore ($31.5 billion) in investment to emerge as India's newest steel hub.

The ultimate ambition discussed with IGF Chairman Manoj Ladwa (@manojladwa) goes far beyond domestic growth.

Maharashtra Government's target is to manufacture steel at a cost that undercuts China, demonstrating how deliberate administrative focus can pivot a historically isolated district into a vital asset for India's global manufacturing competitiveness.

Winning a majority is one thing. Surviving an unexpected political shift is where real leadership is tested.

At the IGF Mumbai Leaders Dinner, Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis (@CMOMaharashtra) didn't hold back. In an exclusive conversation with IGF Chairman Manoj Ladwa (@manojladwa), he was asked about his biggest disappointment. He went straight to 2019. That was the year he won the mandate, but a sudden shift in alliances forced him into the Opposition.
His takeaway? In the high-stakes game of nation-building, setbacks are just temporary. Real leaders play the long game.

Stay tuned for more insights into Devendra Fadnavis' journey and his role in nation-building from the IGF Leaders Dinner.

As markets adapt to a new era of economic and strategic competition, the discussion will examine where capital is likely to flow over the next decade, who will influence the rules governing global finance, and whether the world is entering an age of financial nationalism.

From the Capital & Future Frontiers Forum to closed-door dialogues, regional exchanges and leadership convenings, the programme reflects the scale and ambition of a rapidly evolving corridor.

The AI wave is unstoppable, and the IGF Mumbai 2026 Leaders Dinner explored how Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is preparing the state to stay future-ready.

In a candid conversation with IGF Chairman - Manoj Ladwa (@manojladwa ), Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis (@CMOMaharashtra ) laid out a bold blueprint for state transformation, from the face of governance to adopting AI across every field. Instead of resisting the shift, his administration is moving fast to anticipate it.

The major focus is clear: assessing how the job market will change and aggressively working to reskill and upskill people to suit that future.
It’s the kind of forward-looking vision needed to drive a changing India on a national scale.

Stay tuned for more insights into Devendra Fadnavis’ journey and his role in nation building from the IGF Leaders’ Dinner 2026.

At IGF House Mumbai, in collaboration with our hosting partner Quorum (@TheQuorumClub), investors, founders, operators and capital allocators came together for a closed-door IGF Networks conversation exploring the sectors shaping India’s next phase of growth and global relevance.

From dual-use technologies and private market momentum to the evolving role of defence as a fast-maturing asset class, the discussion reflected a larger shift underway - India moving from importer to builder, and increasingly, from builder to exporter.

In a candid conversation with Manoj Ladwa (@manojladwa), Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis (@CMOMaharashtra) shared his perspective on leadership, party commitments, and his political future.

When asked about his plans for the national stage, Devendra Fadnavis stated he remains ready to serve whatever his party decides.
