Editor's Note - The Future of Language Is Being Built. Be in the Room.

The language industry is no longer only about translation.

AI is changing how content is created.
Localisation is becoming a growth strategy.
Multilingual customer experience is shaping how businesses enter new markets.
And India is increasingly at the centre of this conversation.

So, the real question is not “What will AI do to the language industry?”

It is:

“How will we build the next generation of global content, multilingual businesses and human-AI collaboration?”

That is the conversation we want to bring to the room at SAMVĀD 2026.

On 26 October 2026 at Holiday Inn, Mumbai, the 6th edition of SAMVĀD will bring together LSPs, technology leaders, enterprises, language professionals, researchers and global industry associations to discuss what comes next.

From scaling Indian LSPs globally and reaching the next billion users, to multilingual products, AI, automation and the road to 2030—SAMVĀD is designed not just for listening, but for connecting, questioning and doing business.

And perhaps most importantly:

The conversations shaping our industry should not happen only on screens.

They happen in the room.
At the panel.
Over coffee.
During networking.
In the conversation that continues after the session.

If you are in language, localisation, AI, media, technology or global content, this is a room worth being in.

🎟️ Tickets are now open for SAMVĀD 2026.
