Operations Intern: Inc42 AI Summit 2026

We’re inviting a select group of high-agency students to be part of the Inc42 AI Summit 2026, India’s leading, invite-only gathering focused on real-world AI execution.

Organised by Inc42 Media, the summit brings together 600+ founders, CXOs, and investors, along with 50+ speakers across 25+ sessions, to decode how AI is actually being built and deployed in India today.

Location: Sheraton Grand Bengaluru Whitefield Hotel & Convention Center

Date: 28 May 2026

This is not a passive internship. You’ll be working on-ground at a high-intensity, high-context event, solving real problems in real time.

Manage on-ground event operations across stages, sessions, and experience zones

Coordinate with founders, speakers, and VIP guests

Drive delegate experience, from check-ins to live issue resolution

Support speaker flow, backstage operations, and session transitions

Work closely with internal teams across content, partnerships, and production

Take ownership of real-time problem solving (this is where most learning happens)

Why This Matters

Most people attend events. A few get to build them from the inside.

This internship is less about “helping at an event” and more about learning how high-quality, high-context experiences are actually executed — under pressure, at scale, and with zero room for error.

Application Deadline: 24th April
