IPGF - Indo Pacific GeoIntelligence Forum 2026, Manekshaw Centre, New Delhi, Delhi, India.

The GeoIntelligence Conference & Exhibition – Indo Pacific GeoIntelligence Forum (IPGF 2026) stands as India’s premier defence geospatial platform, bringing together strategic stakeholders from the armed forces, space and geospatial sectors, and allied security agencies. Now in its 16th edition, the conference continues to solidify its reputation as a powerful convergence of innovation, strategic thinking, and operational excellence in defence and internal security.

IPGF 2026 is set against the dynamic geopolitical backdrop of the Indo Pacific region, one of the world’s most critical and contested strategic zones. The 2026 edition of the Forum underscores the transformational role of geospatial and space technologies in strengthening Network Centric Warfare (NCW), with particular attention to their impact on real-time intelligence, decision superiority, and operational preparedness.

With Operation Sindoor serving as a testament to the effectiveness of integrated and responsive networked operations, IPGF 2026 aims to showcase how these capabilities are scaling across the Indo Pacific in ensuring territorial sovereignty, regional stability, and coordinated multinational defence cooperation.

This year’s theme underscores the pivotal role of geospatial intelligence in shaping Network Centric Warfare, where shared situational awareness, real-time data fusion, and coordinated action define success. The session will explore how interconnected platforms, multi-domain operations, and space-based assets are revolutionizing battlefield dominance and national security.In an era of grey-zone warfare, multi-theatre engagements, and cross-border security threats, geospatial technologies form the digital thread binding operations across land, air, sea, space, and cyber domains. The Forum will delve into the technology architecture, policy frameworks, and operational case studies that demonstrate how data interoperability and sovereign geospatial infrastructure are mission-critical in achieving defence superiority.
