India’s growing economic influence took centre stage in London as Brand Vista Consulting hosted the inaugural edition of The Next Economy Forum 2025 at the historic House of Lords, UK Parliament.
The Forum convened distinguished global leaders, policymakers, innovators, and changemakers to deliberate on one of the most defining questions of our time — how can the world collectively shape an economy that is inclusive, sustainable, and anchored in innovation and human progress?
Held within the august chambers of the House of Lords, the Forum served as a reflection of India’s expanding role in global conversations on development and sustainability. It was envisioned as a strategic international platform to reimagine the economic and social paradigms that will define the coming decades — an economy driven by shared purpose, responsible growth, and human-centric innovation.
The event was graced by Lord Darren Mott, Member of Parliament, House of Lords, and Navendu Mishra, Member of Parliament, UK Parliament, as the Chief Guests. Both leaders honoured outstanding global achievers whose work contributes to building a more equitable, healthier, and sustainable world.

Among the distinguished awardees was Vinay Gopal Singh, Partner, JE & VEE Infrastructure, a leading developer from Mumbai, recognised for his pioneering work in sustainable real estate and community-focused development. Expressing his gratitude, Vinay Singh said, “I am truly honoured to receive this award at the august House of Lords and from Lord Darren Mott himself. It is a moment of immense pride not just for me, but for our entire team back in India. This recognition reinforces our belief that progress and sustainability must go hand in hand. At JE & VEE Infrastructure, we are committed to creating developments that blend innovation with responsibility — where every project contributes to a greener, more inclusive, and future-ready India.”
As discussions concluded, the Forum left participants inspired and united by a shared vision of the Next Economy — one where innovation uplifts humanity, leadership is rooted in purpose, and collaboration transcends boundaries.
The first edition of The Next Economy Forum 2025 was not just a gathering of minds but a testament to the enduring power of dialogue, imagination, and collective will to build a more just and sustainable global future.
