The conference

Two days on the decisions that shape India's fuel.

Five business sessions, a CEO roundtable, the leadership awards and the India Ethanol Vision 2030 Declaration.

Why we're convening it

The questions that don't fit in a press release.

India's ethanol story moved faster than almost anyone predicted — from 1.5% blending to E20 in a decade. But the next chapter is harder and less certain: E30 and flex-fuel vehicles, the right feedstock mix, the economics of higher blends, and the move into aviation fuel and biogas. Those questions need a room, not a webinar.

Bharat Ethanol Forum is that room. Over two days, the people who actually make these decisions sit together and work them through. As a first edition we're keeping it deliberately focused — senior, candid, and built for real conversation rather than scale.

The room

A senior, deliberately small first edition.

For the inaugural forum we're prioritising depth over numbers — a focused gathering of the people who set direction in India's ethanol economy. Expect leadership from across the value chain, candid conversation, and the kind of introductions that are hard to engineer anywhere else.
