The Future We Want

The Nobel Prize Dialogue is an open, cross-disciplinary forum that brings together Nobel Prize Laureates, world-leading scientists, policymakers, and thought leaders to discuss global issues that affect us all. The event is open to a worldwide audience online.

In 2025, the Dialogue comes to India in exclusive partnership with the Tata Trusts. Centred on the theme “The Future We Want,” the India editions in Bengaluru and Mumbai will explore how investment in knowledge, creativity, and our young people can build a world of joy, wonder, and innovation that is more inclusive, sustainable, and equitable.
