The venue of Telangana Rising Global Summit.
Synopsis: The two-day economic summit, Telangana Rising Global Summit 2025, is scheduled to be held at the state’s brand-new Bharat Future City on 8 and 9 December. More than 1,300 high-profile delegates will descend on the 100-acre futuristic campus to script what Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy calls Telangana’s “tryst with a $3 trillion destiny by 2047”.
In just 24 hours, the quiet fields around Mucherla on Hyderabad’s southern outskirts will turn into a global nerve centre as Telangana throws open the gates of its brand-new Bharat Future City for the Telangana Rising Global Summit 2025.
Modelled on the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the two-day economic summit on 8 and 9 December is being described as Telangana’s most ambitious showcase ever.
More than 1,300 high-profile delegates — Nobel laureates, billion-dollar CEOs, Olympic medallists, blockbuster film-makers and policy heavyweights — will descend on the 100-acre futuristic campus to script what Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy calls Telangana’s “tryst with a $3 trillion destiny by 2047”.
The summit also doubles as the grand finale of the second anniversary celebrations of the Congress government that swept to power in December 2023. Revanth Reddy has left nothing to chance to make it a statement of Telangana’s intent.
When the curtains go up, the audience will include Nobel economist Abhijit Banerjee, child rights icon and Nobel Peace laureate Kailash Satyarthi, Biocon chief Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, and World Economic Forum managing director Jeremy Jurgens.
Adding an intriguing political footnote is Eric Swider, CEO of Trump Media & Technology Group.
They will rub shoulders with the top brass of the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, Micron, Hitachi Energy, Skyroot Aerospace, Safran, AWS, Apollo Hospitals, GMR, Laurus Labs and scores of others. NASSCOM, DRDO, IIT Hyderabad and UNICEF have also confirmed senior participation.
On the sports track, badminton ace PV Sindhu, cricket legend Anil Kumble, shooting star Gagan Narang, shuttler Jwala Gutta and coach Pullela Gopichand will headline an “Olympic Gold Quest” session exploring sport as economic and soft-power currency.
Meanwhile, cinema’s biggest names — SS Rajamouli, Sukumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Oscar-winning producer Guneet Monga and critic Anupama Chopra — will dissect the “Creative Century” and the global heft of Indian storytelling.
Spread across multiple halls, 27 curated sessions will zoom into the sectors Telangana wants to dominate: Artificial intelligence, semiconductors and data centres; renewable energy and green mobility; life sciences and pharma; education and future-ready skilling; modern agriculture and food processing; tourism and urban infrastructure; women-led entrepreneurship; and the gig economy.
Each track will pair global domain leaders with state ministers and bureaucrats to showcase policy reforms, unveil investment opportunities and, crucially, sign deals on the spot.
The chief minister conducted a marathon review on Saturday, 6 December, that began with an aerial helicopter sweep of the entire campus and ended well after sunset with a foot march through exhibition zones, media centres and VIP lounges.
He instructed officials to erect a majestic statue of Telangana Talli at the main plaza, personally checked seating plans for Union ministers and visiting chief ministers, and insisted that every delegate experience the state’s fabled “mehman nawazi” (hospitality).
Digital kiosks showcasing the Musi Riverfront Development, Hyderabad’s new metro expansions and the upcoming Regional Ring Road were given final touches under his watch.
The summit’s emotional and intellectual high point will come on December 9 afternoon when Revanth Reddy unveils the Telangana Rising–2047 Vision Document — a 360-degree roadmap to catapult the state’s economy to an astonishing $3 trillion in just over two decades.
Prepared after months of inter-departmental brainstorming and external expert inputs, the document spells out spatial planning for new growth corridors, a net-zero carbon pathway, governance innovations, technology-first public services, global investment frameworks and targeted empowerment programmes for women, youth and farmers.
Revanth Reddy described it as a policy bible and an action ledger rolled into one. Even before the summit begins, the deal pipeline looks robust, if government media releases are any indication. They include:
The government hopes that collectively, the announced and under-negotiation projects are expected to create tens of thousands of direct jobs and cement Telangana’s reputation as India’s most business-friendly state.
Evenings will belong to spectacle: A 1,000-drone sky ballet, live performances of Telangana’s Perini dance, Bathukamma floral rituals and mouth-watering Hyderabadi cuisine. A Guinness World Records attempt tied to the Vision 2047 theme is being kept tightly under wraps.
From 10 to 13 December, Bharat Future City will throw open its doors to the general public — free entry to exhibitions, food festivals, startup pavilions and cultural shows — ensuring the summit’s energy spills over to ordinary citizens.
For a state that is barely 11 years old, the Telangana Rising Global Summit will be a declaration of Telangana’s intent to roll out the red carpet to the world.
Under Revanth Reddy, Telangana is signalling that it wants the world to picture it as a confident, inclusive and innovative powerhouse. When the first session begins on Monday, the eyes of global investors, policymakers and dreamers will be on Bharat Future City. And Telangana intends to make sure they like what they see.
