Sanmit Ahuja
Managing Director & CEO - Bharatia
He is a strong advocate for Sustainable Development and for expanding the role of Emerging Markets in the global economy.
Sustainable Development: The planet's core resources - energy, air, land, and water - are finite, and growing ever scarcer. The challenge ahead is finding smarter, more efficient ways to harness and preserve them while ensuring that doing so makes sound economic sense. Sustainability cannot depend indefinitely on government mandates and grants alone; it requires innovative business and financial models that make it self-sustaining and scalable. He is developing cutting-edge tools, high-impact projects, and practical frameworks to advance sustainability across a wide range of sectors, including water, energy, transport, smart cities, manufacturing, green technology, ICT, and food and agriculture. He is deeply passionate about tackling the world's most pressing environmental challenges through innovation and a cross-disciplinary approach.
The Role of Emerging Markets in the Global Economy: Emerging markets are vital engines of global growth, yet many continue to be held back by weak institutional capacity, limited access to growth capital, and governance challenges. He is focused on building and developing platforms that strengthen the contribution of emerging and high-growth economies on the world stage.
