CM DK Shivkumar mentioned that glad to interact with global CEOs, industry leaders, innovators and investors at the Annual CEO Breakfast Meet ahead of Bengaluru Tech Summit 2026.
Their continued confidence in Karnataka reflects our greatest strength: our people. Our engineers, entrepreneurs, researchers and startups have built an ecosystem trusted across the world, and I thank our industry partners for making Karnataka an integral part of their global growth story.
It was also a privilege to inaugurate the Museum of Innovation, Startups & Technology (MIST) and the Innoverse Foundation at the NGEF Campus, Bengaluru. These landmark institutions will strengthen our DeepTech ecosystem by fostering research, entrepreneurship and global collaboration.
As technology transforms the way we live and work, Karnataka is determined to lead with responsibility, innovation and inclusion. We are building the foundation for tomorrow through a public sector-led AI University supported by an AI Hub, BRAINz, the Bengaluru Robotics and AI Innovation Zone, INNOVERSE for high-potential startups, and a Sustainable Data Center Policy. At the same time, we are taking technology-led growth beyond Bengaluru so that opportunities reach every region of our State.
Proud to unveil the theme of Bengaluru Tech Summit 2026, “AI & Beyond.” It reflects our vision for trusted, inclusive and transformative innovation, spanning artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, robotics, semiconductors, space and biotechnology. I invite every organisation to partner with us so that the next generation of breakthrough ideas and transformative technologies is imagined, designed, engineered and scaled in Karnataka for the world.
