IndiSetu is a platform that builds bridges between India and the UK, bringing together leaders, innovators and communities to share ideas and create solutions with real impact.
Our focus is on collaboration across health, climate, culture and education. By connecting people from different sectors, we aim to turn dialogue into action and partnerships into progress.
The Global Connect Forum at the House of Lords is a chance to celebrate achievements, showcase fresh thinking and strengthen ties between our two countries.

It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to Indi Setu, an event born of conviction, curiosity, and collaboration. Conceived as an intellectual and cultural bridge between India and the United Kingdom, Indi Setu brings together changemakers from across disciplines to address the shared challenges and transformative possibilities of our time.
As the Founding Director of the Global Collaboration Forum (GCF), I have always believed in the power of networks that foster knowledge exchange, catalyse partnerships, and unlock innovation across borders. GCF, launched in Kolkata in 2024, was envisioned as a space to enable global good in the realms of healthcare, science and technology, education, environmental stewardship, art, culture, and music.
From climate resilience to health equity, Indi Setu 2025 brings Indian and UK voices together to drive practical solutions. Through Indi Setu, we aim to seed enduring networks that inspire bold ideas and collaborative action. We extend a warm invitation to every right-thinking individual who believes, as we do, that the future must be built together with empathy, imagination, and resolve.
Let us co-create a platform that not only builds bridges between nations, but also across minds, generations and visions for a better tomorrow.
