Some journeys become special because they keep moving forward. Others become memorable because they dare to take a new direction. The 19th edition of Print Summit, organized by the Bombay Master Printers’ Association (BMPA), promises to do both.
On 12 January 2027, Print Summit will move from its familiar home at Tata NCPA to the magnificent Grand Theatre at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC), BKC, Mumbai.
This significant change of venue marks a new chapter for an event that has grown into one of the printing industry’s most anticipated annual knowledge gatherings. And the message remains as powerful as ever: Be Unstoppable!
Print Summit’s journey has been one of steadily expanding ambitions. PS2025 brought together around 1,000 delegates for a day of inspiration, business insights and fresh thinking. Its chairperson, Faheem Agboatwala, aptly described it as the ‘Mahakumbh of Print’—a gathering that brings together the many different people and perspectives that make up the industry.
That spirit continued at PS2026, the 18th edition, which explored the possibilities of leadership, strategy, technology and reinvention. Chairperson Faheem Agboatwala championed 10 carefully curated sessions built around real insights, real experiences and real conversations. His closing words, “This is a journey, and we are all fellow travellers,” captured the inclusive spirit of the summit.
The program brought together distinguished voices from business, leadership and culture. Nitin Paranjpe, non-executive chairman of Hindustan Unilever, shared lessons from failure, accountability and leadership.
Anupam Kher, Captain Raman and Ashish Vidyarthi were among the other prominent names featured in the program, while Cyrus Broacha and Kunal Vijaykar brought humor and entertainment into the mix. Gaurav Kataria of ITC’s Paperboards and Specialty Papers business explored how artificial intelligence could improve efficiency, growth and sustainability in the print industry.
Now, PS2027 is preparing to build on this foundation with fresh leadership and new program elements. Ankul Nanavaty takes charge as chairperson of Print Summit 2027, while Saubhagyanidhi Seksaria leads BMPA as its new president.
Their edition will introduce two new units, Naya Daur and Unstoppable Me, alongside the popular The Mavericks, hosted by Iqbal Kherodawala.
The new venue is more than a change of address. It signals the organizers’ ambition to create an experience that matches the scale, energy and aspirations of the printing fraternity. The Grand Theatre at NMACC will provide a distinctive setting for a day of ideas, encounters, learning and inspiration.
For Tushar Bhotica, BMPA president during PS2025 and PS2026, the theme was never merely a slogan. His message called upon printers to embrace resilience, innovation and sustainability, while remembering that progress loses its value when achieved at the cost of integrity and environmental responsibility. That conviction remains at the heart of PS2027.
Whether you are a business owner seeking your next growth opportunity, a professional preparing for the future or a young entrepreneur looking for inspiration, Print Summit offers a chance to step away from routine and see your business through a wider lens.
