The Bombay Master Printers’ Association (BMPA) has announced the 18th edition of Print Summit (PS26), scheduled for 4 February 2026 at NCPA, Mumbai — an influential knowledge event in India’s print and packaging industry. 

After the success of PS25, which cemented “Be Unstoppable” as the community’s collective mindset, PS26 promises to elevate the conversation even further, the organizers said. With a program crafted around the theme ‘Numerous Inspirations. Infinite Knowledge. Endless Possibilities,’ the summit aims to reimagine what leadership, creativity, technology, and collaboration mean in a rapidly evolving world. 

A global-standard knowledge festival 

Over the years, Print Summit has drawn global speakers, bringing together over 1,000+ industry leaders under one roof. PS26 continues this tradition with a future-focused line-up that blends intellect, creativity, humour,  and strategic insight. 

For 2026, the central emotion is clear: momentum. PS26 will challenge the industry to accelerate,  innovate and reimagine the next decade of print. 

The Leadership, Strategy & Reinvention segment features some influential voices, such as actor and motivational speaker Anupam Kher,  strategy and leadership coach Captain Raman, Nitin Paranjpe, chairman of  Hindustan Unilever, and Ashish Vidyarthi, actor and podcaster.

Panel showcase

Moderated by Siddhi Shah from PrintStop, this session features Mohit Jain, co-founder & CEO, Kimirica; Pritha Thadani, co-founder, Please See; and Siddhant Bhalinge, founder, Ugaoo. 

Together, they will decode modern brand creation — marrying design, storytelling, consumer psychology and the irreplaceable role of print. 

The return of the mavericks 

One of PS25’s biggest successes — curated by Iqbal Kherodawala — makes a comeback.  “Mavericks” celebrates those who break rules, defy norms, and rewrite the boundaries of possibility. Delegates can expect new stories of courage, creativity and real-world reinvention. 

When laughter meets leadership 

No Print Summit is complete without humor. PS26 features Cyrus Broacha, satirist, broadcaster, and unfiltered humourist and  Kunal Vijaykar — writer, host and culinary chronicler. 

On 4 February 2026, at NCPA Mumbai, attendees will experience leadership insights, actionable frameworks for building iconic brands, a deep dive into creativity and design linked to print, practical tools for growth, strategy and reinvention and more.
