Times Now India’s Impactful CEOs Conclave 2024 will bring together accomplished CEOs, thought leaders, and industry experts to discuss and share insights on how CEOs can drive positive change, create meaningful impact, and lead their organizations towards a sustainable and responsible future.
Continuing the tradition, the conclave, will recognize and celebrate CEOs who have demonstrated exceptional leadership qualities and have contributed significantly to the success of their organizations and industries.

These encompassed a spectrum of vital elements such as leader’s contribution in driving company innovation and growth, promoting diversity within the company, leading profitability of the organization, enhancing the industry at large among other notable achievements.
- Individuals can also self-nominate by completing an online application form on the event website.
- This will be followed by a rigorous evaluation process by ET Edge Insights Editors who will analyse leaders based on the parameters and the self-nominations received.
