Past Speakers
Voices That
Changed The Room.
Our Esteemed Speakers Over the Last 10 Years
For ten years, the stage at Global Ed-Fest has been home to some of the most thoughtful, courageous and visionary minds in Indian education. These are not keynote tourists. They are practitioners, policymakers, founders and teachers who came to this room, spoke without a script, and left the audience different. Over 500 speakers across nine editions. Every one of them chose to show up because they believed the conversation mattered.
