Seven prominent Indian business leaders, including Tata Sons Chairman N. Chandrasekaran and Infosys CEO Salil Parekh, are slated to attend an exclusive reception with former US President Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2026 in Davos, Switzerland. The high-level session, which includes a select group of 146 global corporate leaders, is scheduled for Wednesday, January 21, 2026. Other notable Indian CEOs participating in this significant gathering are Srini Pallia of Wipro, Sunil Bharti Mittal of Bharti Enterprises, Dr. Anish Shah of Mahindra Group, Sanjiv Bajaj of Bajaj Finserv, and Hari S. Bhartia of Jubilant Bhartia Group. Donald Trump's presence at Davos 2026 has been widely reported, with expectations that he will meet global business leaders and deliver a special address. The participation of this strong Indian delegation underscores the increasing global influence of Indian corporations and the strategic importance of India-US business relationships. The meeting is taking place amidst ongoing US-India trade deal negotiations, with recent developments suggesting a softening of relations and a potential announcement in the near future. Beyond this specific reception, the World Economic Forum in Davos, running from January 19-23, 2026, features nearly 3,000 leaders from over 130 countries, focusing on global economic cooperation, policy coordination, and addressing pressing challenges like geopolitics and artificial intelligence. Indian ministers and officials are also actively using the platform to pitch India's clean energy sector and broader investment opportunities to international funds and leaders.
