Ujjain Set to Host Young Thinkers’ Confluence 2025: Three Days of Ideas, Culture And Dialogue

The stage is set for the Young Thinkers’ Confluence (YTC) 2025, a three-day intellectual and cultural gathering that will bring together scholars, policymakers, artists, and young voices from across the country. Scheduled from October 10 to 12, 2025, at Avantika University, Ujjain, the event promises to be a vibrant forum for dialogue and exchange.

Organised under the banner of the Young Thinkers’ Forum (YTF), the confluence will explore themes ranging from civilizational heritage and religion to contemporary policy, technology, and global affairs.

A Platform for Young Minds

Beyond keynote sessions, YTC 2025 will host discussions, roundtables, and cultural programmes, reinforcing YTF’s mission to foster free thought, fearless inquiry, and conscious leadership.

With Ujjain’s spiritual heritage as the backdrop and Avantika University’s modern campus as the venue, the confluence is expected to attract a diverse gathering of intellectuals, students, and thought leaders from across India.

Event Highlights

The event will open with a cultural evening at Mahakal Lok, followed by a visit to Shri Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga. Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Dr. Mohan Yadav and national award-winning filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri are among the dignitaries scheduled to attend the inaugural session, which will also feature book launches and keynote dialogues.

Themes and Sessions

Each day of the confluence has been curated around a central theme:

Day 2 — Manthan: The Churning of Ideas
Discussions will focus on themes such as the battle for dharma in North-Eastern Bharat, RSS at 100, and colonial consciousness. Notable participants include Dr. Manmohan Vaidya, Prof. M.S. Chaitra, and J. Nandakumar.

Day 3 — Sankalp: From Thought to Action
The concluding day will feature forward-looking sessions on geopolitics, international relations, and policy-driven action, led by voices such as Pathikrit Payne and Anmol N. Jain.

The Young Thinkers’ Confluence 2025 is being organised with the active support of multiple institutions and partners. Avantika University, Ujjain has come on board as the Venue Partner, providing its vibrant campus as the setting for the three-day event.

The confluence is also enriched by the involvement of several Knowledge Partners, who bring academic depth, research insights, and institutional collaboration to the platform. Together, these partnerships reflect the shared commitment of academia, civil society, and thought leaders to foster dialogue, scholarship, and leadership among India’s young minds.
