With the future of technology moving quickly, AI is changing how we build and deploy, and questions around who controls our data, infrastructure, and technology stack are becoming increasingly important. That’s exactly where Civo Navigate India 2026 comes in.
Civo Navigate India is back for the second time on 24th November 2026, bringing together over 1,000 industry experts for a day focused on AI, cloud and data sovereignty.
Taking place at the Sheraton Grand Bengaluru Whitefield Hotel & Convention Center, this year’s event brings together some of the people closest to these conversations, from engineers and AI practitioners to founders, technology leaders and developer advocates. With over 30 speakers, hands-on workshops, technical sessions, and plenty of opportunities to connect, Civo Navigate India is designed to go beyond the hype and get into the ideas, technologies, and challenges shaping what comes next.
Here’s a look at the speakers taking the stage and the conversations shaping this year’s Sovereignty and AI edition.

What can I expect from attending Civo Navigate India?
Civo Navigate India is a full-day, in-person event that opens with a keynote on the main stage at 9:30 AM. From there, the program runs across four spaces: the main stage, two breakout rooms, and a dedicated workshop room for anyone who'd rather build than listen.
Every session comes back to two questions:
- How do we build smarter technology?
- How do we maintain control over the infrastructure and data it depends on?
For years, these were treated as separate conversations. They aren't anymore. Throughout the day, speakers will dig into AI infrastructure, cloud-native engineering, Kubernetes, MLOps, data sovereignty, and the future of AI, with a focus on the practical realities of building, deploying, and scaling modern technology, not just the theory.
When sessions wrap at 5:30 PM, the conversation doesn't stop. It moves. The networking event is your chance to swap ideas with the people you've been sharing rooms with all day, and with giveaways running throughout, you'll have the chance to win exclusive swag and prizes too.
Hands-on learning: Join the workshop room
Civo Navigate India isn't designed to be a day of sitting back and listening. Alongside the main stage sessions, attendees will have access to hands-on workshops led by industry experts, giving them the opportunity to get closer to the technology and take practical ideas back to their teams.
It's a big part of what makes Civo Navigate different.
You can hear about what's changing in AI and cloud. You can challenge ideas with the people working on them. And then you can get hands-on and start exploring what those changes could mean for your own work.
