Built around the theme “AI Commerce for Bharat – Made for Bharat,” the summit will bring together India’s most influential voices in digital commerce to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the future of business. This marks a key milestone in Shiprocket’s broader strategy to expand its footprint across India, deepening engagement with southern markets and strengthening its position as the commerce backbone of Bharat.
Recognised as one of India’s premier platforms for the MSME and D2C ecosystem, SHIVIR 2025 has evolved into a hub where technology, entrepreneurship, and innovation converge to shape the future of commerce. The Bengaluru edition is being hosted in the country’s technology capital, home to some of India’s most vibrant digital-first businesses and an ever-growing community of online sellers. The choice of Bengaluru underscores the event’s focus on empowering sellers through innovation, digital infrastructure, and AI-led solutions that drive growth and efficiency. The summit will bring together leading D2C founders, investors, policymakers, and ecosystem enablers to exchange insights on AI-driven fulfilment, intelligent personalisation, cross-border commerce, and scalable digital solutions. Through these conversations, SHIVIR 2025 aims to equip sellers with the knowledge, tools, and partnerships needed to build resilient, customer-centric, and globally competitive businesses.
“Bringing SHIVIR to Bengaluru for the first time marks a strategic milestone in Shiprocket’s journey to deepen its footprint across India,” said Saahil Goel, MD & CEO, Shiprocket. “We’ve seen strong demand from our merchant and partner community across southern India, who wanted a platform like SHIVIR closer to them after the overwhelming response in Delhi. Bengaluru with its deep-rooted culture of technology and entrepreneurship embodies the spirit of innovation that drives India’s digital commerce ecosystem. SHIVIR 2025 will set the stage for how AI-led commerce can unlock Bharat’s next phase of growth and global competitiveness.”
