Why this evening

Markets move on relationships
as much as numbers.

Prices are being rewritten by things no spreadsheet fully captures — weather, war, shifting trade routes, the slow rebuild of supply chains. India sits closer to the centre of all of it than it ever has.

An evening built for the people living that reality day to day — small, senior, mixed-sector. Five business sessions, a keynote, awards and a dinner where the actual business gets done. No badges-and-booths trade show.
