2nd Annual Governance, Risk & Compliance India Summit 2026
Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) frameworks are playing an increasingly crucial role in the Indian business ecosystem, driven by evolving regulations and the necessity for strong corporate governance. Implementing GRC practices presents both challenges and opportunities for organizations striving to manage this intricate landscape effectively. The rising complexity of regulatory mandates in India has fueled a growing need for advanced GRC solutions. In response, global firms are expanding their footprint in the Indian market to meet this demand.
The global GRC platform market is witnessing substantial expansion, projected to grow by USD 44,224.6 million between 2025 and 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.2%. This growth trend highlights the increasing significance of GRC frameworks on a global scale, including their rising adoption in India.
Inventicon's 2nd Annual Governance, Risk & Compliance India Summit 2026 is the leading conference focusing on the latest GRC frameworks in Indian businesses where top-level professionals from the leading organizations will throw light on the best practices recognizing the critical role in ensuring compliance, managing risks, and promoting ethical governance.
