Enabling Transformation and Future-Readiness with Next-Gen Tech
The Public Sector forms an inseparable part of India’s economy with a significant contribution of around 13-14% to the nation’s GDP. However, the next era of growth will inevitably be propelled by next-gen technologies. As India’s PSUs make their way to shed legacy infrastructure to make way for advanced technologies, ETGovernment, a B2B publication of The Economic Times, is organising the National PSU Residential Summit, which aims to open doors for productive and growth-led conversations, drive actionable insights, bridge the gap between PSUs and the private sector, and derive inferences on making PSUs future-ready.
After 9 successful editions, the 10th edition of the National PSU Residential Summit 2026, scheduled to be held at Crowne Plaza, Kochi, Kerala on 04–06 December, 2026, stands at the absolute vanguard of the nation’s next leg of industrial evolution, bringing together public sector leaders, policymakers, and tech pioneers to redefine the future of national enterprise.
Key Discussion Topics
Transforming PSUs into technology-first and AI-ready enterprises.
Building a strong foundational layer for next-generation-driven transformation.

The conference will actively showcase real-world PSU readiness while courageously tackling systemic roadblocks. Sessions will dissect pressing themes through high-impact keynotes, panel discussions, and fireside chats. This summit aims to bridge the gap between regulatory policy and operational agility, charting a resilient roadmap for technology-led national growth.
