National Sustainable Urban

Innovation Summit - Maharashtra

About the Summit

The National Sustainable Urban Innovation Summit (NSUIS) is a premier national-level platform bringing together policymakers, urban local bodies, government officials, planners, industry leaders, start-ups, technology providers, multilateral agencies, and academia to deliberate on innovative, sustainable, and scalable urban solutions. With India’s rapid urbanisation, cities are at the forefront of addressing challenges related to climate resilience, infrastructure stress, mobility, water security, waste management, digital governance, and inclusive growth. NSUIS aims to foster knowledge exchange, policy dialogue, and partnerships that accelerate the transition towards smart, sustainable, and citizen-centric cities.

The summit is hosted in partnership with Mira Bhayandar Municipal Corporation (MBMC), a progressive urban local body actively implementing sustainable and technology-driven urban initiatives.
