The Bengaluru Eco Summit 2025 opened with grandeur, bringing together visionaries, environmentalists, and innovators under the powerful theme of Sustainable Coexistence. The event was inaugurated by Sri Prashanth Prakash and Smt. Rumi Mallick Mitra, Global Head & Director of Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability at EY GDS, highlighting the urgent need for unified efforts in addressing climate change.
Organised by Yuvaka Sangha and Haritvam, in collaboration with IISc and Chanakya University, and supported by NSS, the summit aims to redefine how we look at development in harmony with nature. With sub-themes ranging from clean agriculture and food security, green buildings, air quality, water security, clean energy, solid and e-waste management, forest conservation, biodiversity, and urban planning, the summit addresses every critical aspect of sustainable living.
The panel discussion on Development or Disruption? Rethinking the Green Economy sparked fresh debates about balancing economic growth with environmental preservation. Competitions such as Mapathon and Photography engaged students and young innovators to reimagine sustainable cities.
By combining knowledge-sharing with creativity, Bengaluru Eco Summit 2025 has set the tone for a collective movement that prioritises both human progress and ecological wellbeing.
