India Mobile Congress is Asia’s largest telecommunications and technology event. India Mobile Congress provides a platform for all digital technology and communications stakeholders to come together and discuss, explore, plan and assess new and next-generation technologies and their impact on the world.

The India Mobile Congress is a global platform for ICT and TMT brands, businesses, policymakers and professionals to come together to discuss, cooperate and collaborate about new and emerging technologies, their use-cases, issues pertaining to the regulatory landscape, market trends and more.
