AndPurpose Forum Mumbai 2025: Advancing Collective Action for India’s Sustainable Future 10 December 2025 | Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai

More than 150 leaders and changemakers from business, philanthropy, government, climate action, social innovation, and impact investing participated in the one-day convening - reflecting AndPurpose’s mission to unite India’s most influential voices across sustainability, innovation, and inclusion.

Radhabinod Aribam Sharma, IAS, Municipal Commissioner & Administrator, Mira Bhayandar Municipal Corporation, said:

“India’s cities stand at a defining moment. Purposeful growth now means building urban systems that are resilient, people-centric, and climate-ready. Platforms like AndPurpose create the collaborative spaces cities need—where government, industry, and innovators can come together to reimagine urban development and co-create solutions that truly serve our communities and our future.”

A Platform Built for Collaboration and Real-World Change

AndPurpose Forums were created with a simple belief: collective progress requires collective spaces. Each edition brings together diverse stakeholders - industry, government, finance, grassroots innovators, and global leaders to learn from one another and co-create solutions to India’s most urgent challenges.

Panels at the Forum are intentionally curated for diversity of thought, ensuring that perspectives that rarely meet in the same room come together for meaningful dialogue and practical problem-solving. 

A core pillar of AndPurpose is to serve as a matchmaking platform for funders, innovators, and ecosystem builders, enabling new partnerships, shared learning, and pathways for action.

What began as a small community has now grown into a network of 1,300+ members across India and globally - united by the belief that sustainability and equity must go hand-in-hand.

Leadership Perspectives

Kamna Hazrati, Founder of AndPurpose, shared:
 “The Mumbai Forum is built on the belief that real progress happens when leaders come together with intent and purpose. India is entering a defining decade of social and climate transition, and collaboration is no longer optional - it is essential. This platform aims to inspire collective action, spotlight innovation, and unlock partnerships that can meaningfully shift outcomes for communities and the planet.”

A Day Designed for Depth, Dialogue, and Action

Participants engaged in cross-sector panels, interactive workshops, curated networking, and the Purpose Pitch innovation showcase-designed to help leaders walk away with immediately applicable insights, new collaborations, and clear action pathways. 

The Forum emphasised systems thinking, practical solutions, and shared action over isolated, siloed approaches.
