About the Conclave

The ASSOCHAM India Water Leadership Conclave 2026 – 2nd Edition is a high-level platform bringing together Government, CEOs & CXOs, industry leaders, sustainability experts, financial institutions, technology providers and water professionals to shape the future of India's water security and resilience.

Curated by the ASSOCHAM National Council on Water, the Conclave builds on ASSOCHAM's sustained leadership in advancing water stewardship, efficiency and sustainable water management. The Chamber has been nationally recognised as the "Best Industry Association" under the Jal Sanchay Jan Bhagidari Awards by the Ministry of Jal Shakti for its efforts in rainwater harvesting and groundwater recharge, and was felicitated by Shri C. R. Patil, Hon'ble Union Minister of Jal Shakti, for promoting the voluntary adoption of Water Use Efficiency (WUE) targets across industries.

Building on this momentum, the 2nd Edition will focus on the transition from water risk to water resilience, creating a space for leadership dialogue, policy engagement, investment, innovation and collaborative action. The Conclave will explore how effective governance, innovative financing, water credits, positive water impact, AI, digitalisation and circular water solutions can accelerate practical and scalable pathways towards a water-secure India.

Through meaningful Government–Industry dialogue, knowledge exchange, technology showcase and cross-sector collaboration, the Conclave aims to move beyond discussion towards actionable solutions, enabling stakeholders to lead, invest, innovate and create measurable positive water impact.

Objectives:
  • Bring together Government, CEOs/CXOs and industry leaders to shape collaborative approaches for water security, resilience and effective governance.
  • Explore innovative financing, water credits and market-based mechanisms to accelerate investment in sustainable water solutions and measurable water impact.
  • Promote AI, digital technologies, water efficiency, reuse and circular economy solutions for scalable and resource-efficient water management.
  • Facilitate knowledge exchange, partnerships and replication of best practices to move from water risk and neutrality towards measurable, resilient and positive water outcomes.
