Synapse 2026 will feature keynote sessions, panel discussions, transformation stories, and interactive masterclasses covering topics such as:

1. When change has no finish line: Why adoption starts at the top
2. Implement the tool first or prepare the people first? Rethinking transformation strategy
3. People, process, and platform: Getting the sequence right in enterprise transformation
4. Transformation stories from the field — what worked, what didn’t, and what leaders learned
5. Building organisational capabilities that enable long-term transformation
6. Hands-on masterclasses focused on practical change management and AI transformation strategies

Synapse 2026 is the only conference in India at the intersection of AI strategy and organisational change management. Most AI conferences (such as Cypher, IDC CIO Summit, or NASSCOM events) focus on technology architecture, AI tools, or data science. Synapse focuses on what happens after the technology decision — the human adoption, leadership alignment, cultural readiness, and change capability that determine whether AI investments actually deliver ROI. Synapse is also the only conference formally anchored in Prosci methodology — the world’s most widely-used change management framework — providing evidence-based insights rather than aspirational claims.

Synapse 2026 features senior leaders from some of the world’s leading organisations. Confirmed speakers include:

• Shweta Mohanty — Head of People & Culture, SAP India
• Sruthi Kannan — Senior Director, Strategy & Innovation, NatWest Group India
• Urmi Chatterjee — Head HR, India & APJ, Siemens Healthineers
• Arun Narayanaswamy — Senior Director Engineering and Site Head, Amadeus — Pune
• Shweta Rani — Chief People & Culture Officer, Zinnov
• Dr. Naga Swathi T.J — Global Sr. Director & Head of Business AI Implementation Group, SAP — APAC

Additional speakers will be announced as the event approaches. Follow MARG on LinkedIn for updates.
