A fundamental shift is underway in how organisations operate.
Artificial intelligence, data intelligence and automation are no longer just improving efficiency, they are redefining how decisions are made, how expertise is applied, and how value is created at scale. As this transformation accelerates, the conversation is moving beyond adoption to a more urgent question: how do organisations redesign themselves for an AI-first world?
In response to this shift, The Economic Times has announced the Future of Knowledge Work Summit 2026, to be held in Bengaluru in June. Conceived as a definitive thought-leadership platform, the summit will bring together enterprise leaders, technology decision-makers, innovators and experts to examine how knowledge-driven roles, organisational models and leadership are evolving.
At its core, the summit will explore how intelligence is becoming embedded into everyday systems and workflows, and what that means for productivity, collaboration and decision-making. As organisations move from experimentation to implementation, the emphasis is shifting towards building capabilities, rethinking structures, and enabling human expertise to work alongside intelligent systems at scale.
For India, this moment holds particular significance. As a global hub for knowledge and technology talent, the challenge is no longer access to tools, but the ability to redesign systems around them. How decisions are made, how teams collaborate, and how value is created are all being reimagined in real time.
The one-day summit will feature curated discussions on enterprise AI strategy, knowledge management, automation, data intelligence and leadership culture. Designed to go beyond surface-level trends, the platform will focus on real-world applications, organisational readiness and the frameworks required to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving environment.
Set in Bengaluru, India’s technology and innovation capital, the summit reinforces The Economic Times’ commitment to creating high-impact platforms that track and interpret the most consequential shifts shaping business and the economy.
Registrations for the summit will open soon, inviting participants to engage with a platform designed to explore the next phase of enterprise evolution.
The Future of Knowledge Work Summit is envisioned as a flagship destination for ideas, insights and dialogue, bringing together the perspectives that will define what comes next for knowledge-driven enterprises.
