IndiQube and Network18 have organized the Future of Work Summit to examine how technology and AI are reshaping global professional collaboration [1, 2].

The initiative arrives as the nature of knowledge work undergoes a gradual shift, impacting how policymakers and industry leaders design workplaces and careers [3].

Promotional broadcasts for the series are scheduled for May 9 and 10, 2026, at 4 p.m. on CNBC-TV18 [1]. These broadcasts serve as a prelude to the broader event, which some sources identify as the Future of Knowledge Work Summit [2].

The main summit is scheduled to take place on June 17, 2026, in Bengaluru, India [2]. The event will bring together a variety of innovators and industry leaders to decode the future of professional environments, specifically focusing on the intersection of technology and human labor [1, 2].

Organizers said the forum will act as a defining space for rewriting how work happens in the modern era [2]. The discussions will center on the evolution of careers, and the specific role of artificial intelligence in altering traditional workplace dynamics [3].

Bengaluru, often cited as a global tech hub, provides the backdrop for the June gathering [2]. The collaboration between a co-working provider like IndiQube and a media giant like Network18 suggests a dual focus on the physical infrastructure of work and the public discourse surrounding labor trends [1, 2].

A forum to discuss how workplaces, careers, and technology will evolve

The alignment of real estate providers and media networks to discuss the 'knowledge work' transition indicates that the shift toward hybrid and AI-integrated work is moving from a temporary pandemic-era trend to a permanent structural change in the Indian economy.
