About CGII
Our Team
What We Do ?
At the Centre for Global India Insights (CGII), we are dedicated to mapping and advancing a multi-layered discourse on India’s growing role in global affairs. We undertake rigorous research and leverage the expert network to provide original analyses on pressing global issues. CGII is animated by its mission of shaping the rise of India and the Global South in the international arena
CGII organises seminars and round–table discussions on international relations, public policy, and India’s relations with key power centres. Ministers, ambassadors, diplomats, business leaders, academics and thought leaders have participated in various events organised by CGII.
CGII publishes policy briefs on pressing global issues, curates conferences and closed-door discussions for clients and stakeholders, and provides consultancy services in areas of geopolitical risks management, conferencing and advocacy.
Our research, seminars and publications seek to bridge the gap between academia, government, and industry, and help shape global narratives around India’s diplomatic, economic, and security policies, which help policy makers and business elite in making informed decisions.
Our Core Areas of Work
Research & Analysis
We conduct in-depth research on key geopolitical trends, emerging global challenges, and India’s strategic engagements. Our research outputs include policy briefs, white papers, reports, and expert commentaries that inform decision-makers and the wider public.
We organize high-profile summits, policy dialogues, and roundtables that bring together diplomats, academics, industry leaders, and policymakers to discuss pressing global issues and India’s place in the international order.
Strategic Consultancy
We offer tailored advisory services to governments, businesses, and organizations seeking insights into India’s foreign policy, economic strategies, and geopolitical positioning. Our consultancy services provide clients up-to-date information and access to decision-makers and policymakers.
Conferencing, Events & Advocacy
We help clients and partners to organise conferences and advocacy events to project their narrative on the issue under discussion. Our conferencing services include conceptualising the conference, selecting speakers and discussants, inviting audience, selection of the venue, branding the event and social media projection
Media & Publishing
The media arms of CGII include India Writes Network (IWN), a well-known global portal focused on international affairs and India and the World magazine-journal. These platforms present a balanced narrative on global issues and chronicle India’s emergence as a global player with a distinctive voice in the international arena. IWN has been invited by think tanks, media organizations and governments for VIP visits, conferences, multilateral summits and familiarisation visits. IWN and ITW has carved a niche for insightful and in-depth analysis of international events and foreign policy issues.
We also do contract publishing, which involves designing, curating and printing high-quality magazines, books and coffee-table books for clients, including the government, embassies and corporates
