The International Conference on Cyberlaw, Cybercrime & Cybersecurity (ICCC 2025), took place at SCOPE Convention Centre in New Delhi from 19 to 21 November, 2025. An official pre-summit event to the India-AI Impact Summit 2026, scheduled for February 19-20, 2026, at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, this alignment represents a significant convergence of global expertise in cyberlaw, AI governance, and digital security, positioning India as a leading voice in shaping international frameworks for secure and ethical artificial intelligence.
Building the Foundation for Global AI Governance
ICCC 2025, organized by Cyberlaws.Net and Pavan Duggal Associates, Advocates and curated by internationally renowned cyberlaw expert Dr. Pavan Duggal, serves as a critical precursor to India’s premier AI governance platform. With its theme ‘Artificial Intelligence Ecosystem – Challenges and Opportunities,’ ICCC 2025 convened over 1,500 delegates and 300 distinguished speakers from around the world to address the most pressing challenges at the intersection of AI, cybersecurity, and legal frameworks.
“ICCC 2025 provides the essential intellectual groundwork and stakeholder dialogue necessary to advance the India-AI Impact Summit’s ambitious agenda,” said Dr. Pavan Duggal, Conference Director and Advocate at the Supreme Court of India, “By gathering global experts, policymakers, judges, law enforcement, and technology leaders now, we are establishing the strategic foundation for transformative policy outcomes in February 2026.”
Complementary Frameworks for Digital Transforma on
The timing and thematic alignment of these two events create a unique opportunity for India to lead global discourse on AI governance. ICCC 2025 focuses on the legal, regulatory, and cybersecurity dimensions of AI deployment, including critical issues such as:
- AI-enabled cybercrime and automated harms.
- Post-quantum cryptography and encryption governance.
- Data privacy and protection in the AI era.
- International cyber norms and transnational cooperation.
- Synthetic media, deepfakes, and digital authenticity.
- Crical infrastructure protection.
The India-AI Impact Summit 2026, hosted by the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology and guided by the principles of People, Planet, and Progress, will build upon these foundational discussions to showcase AI’s transformative potential across healthcare, agriculture, education, energy, climate change, and inclusive development.
Advancing India’s Global Leadership in AI Governance
By establishing ICCC 2025 as an official pre-event, India demonstrates its commitment to multi-stakeholder collaboration and evidence-based policymaking. The conference attracted senior government officials, leading academics, corporate innovators, and digital rights advocates from across the Global South and developed nations, precisely the diverse constituencies essential for shaping equitable, implementable AI governance frameworks.
This partnership underscores India’s strategic positioning as a thought leader in bridging the global AI divide, ensuring that the benefits of artificial intelligence accrue equitably while safeguarding security, privacy, and human rights in digital ecosystems.
