Among the leaders joining the table are senior decision-makers fromNestlé, Dabur, Philips, Versuni, iQOO, Kenstar, Pizza Hut, Wozoyoand other leading brands, alongside celebrated technology journalist and creatorRajiv Makhni.
Rather than another conference or a conventional marketing panel,The Influence Table is designed around conversation, access and ideas—bringing brand leaders and influential voices together in an environment where candid perspectives can be exchanged.
Hosted at the prestigiousDLF Golf & Country Club, the gathering will feature a chef-curated breakfast and a carefully selected table of industry leaders, with discussions exploring the evolving relationship between brands, creators, culture, technology and consumer influence.
Speaking about the initiative,Sahil Chopra, Chairman, IIGC, said:
“Influence today is no longer limited to advertising, media or celebrities. It sits at the intersection of culture, credibility, community and commerce. With The Influence Table, we wanted to create a space where the people shaping this new economy can sit across one table, not on a stage, and have the conversations that matter. Twenty leaders, three influential voices and one table can create more meaningful dialogue than a room full of panels.”
The Influence Table is part of IIGC’s larger effort to bring greater structure, credibility and meaningful industry dialogue to India’s rapidly evolving influencer ecosystem. IIGC has been working across standards, education, research and industry initiatives to build a more transparent and responsible influencer marketing ecosystem.
With India’s creator economy increasingly influencing brand discovery, consideration and purchase decisions, The Influence Table aims to create a new platform for senior marketers to exchange perspectives on what influence really means—and where it is headed next.
One long table. 20 marketing leaders. 3 influential voices. One conversation about the future of influence.
