Positioned as a platform that celebrates medical excellence while fostering meaningful discussions on emerging healthcare challenges, the event will see participation from leading doctors, hospital administrators, healthcare innovators, industry leaders, policymakers, and government representatives.

One of the most poignant moments of the conclave is expected to be a special tribute to the families of doctors who lost their lives while serving patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. The ceremony will honour these families as "COVID Warriors," recognising the extraordinary sacrifice made by healthcare professionals who stood on the frontlines during one of the most difficult chapters in modern medical history.

Speaking about the initiative, Padma Shri awardee Prof. (Dr.) Sanjeev Bagai, Mentor of the NexGen Health Conclave, Founder of Zenr, and one of India's most respected healthcare leaders, said the event represents much more than a conference.

“NexGen Health Conclave is more than an event; it is a movement that celebrates those who dedicate their lives to healing others. As India advances towards becoming a global healthcare leader, it is important that we honour our medical fraternity, remember the sacrifices made during the pandemic, and create platforms for meaningful dialogue on emerging health challenges. This conclave embodies all these objectives,” he said.

Echoing the sentiment, Manish Thakur, CEO of NB Digital PR & Branding, said this year's edition has been dedicated to celebrating the lives and contributions of doctors while addressing key healthcare concerns affecting the nation.

“This is our third conference and this year we are focusing on healthcare as we celebrate the life and contribution of doctors. The tribute to families of COVID Warrior doctors will be one of the most emotional moments of the evening. Through this platform, we also aim to honour doctors who have made extraordinary contributions towards making India healthier and stronger,” he said.

Apart from recognising medical excellence, the conclave will also serve as a forum for discussing some of India's most pressing health issues. A major attraction will be a high-powered panel discussion on obesity, GLP-1 therapies, and mental health. Experts from across the healthcare spectrum will deliberate on the rising burden of lifestyle diseases in India and examine innovative treatment approaches, preventive healthcare strategies, and public awareness initiatives.

The discussion is expected to explore the growing role of advanced therapies and medicines in tackling obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders, conditions that are increasingly emerging as major public health concerns across the country.

The event is likely to attract several prominent political and healthcare leaders. Invitations have been extended to Union Health Minister J.P. Nadda, Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare Anupriya Patel, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, Delhi Health Minister Dr. Pankaj Singh, and Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak, among other distinguished dignitaries.

The conclave will also recognise outstanding contributions by doctors, hospitals, healthcare institutions, innovators, and public health champions through a series of awards aimed at celebrating excellence in healthcare delivery and public service.

With its blend of policy discussions, healthcare leadership, innovation, recognition, and advocacy, NexGen Health Conclave 2026 is expected to strengthen its reputation as one of India's leading healthcare forums and play an important role in shaping conversations about the future of healthcare in the country.
