VIBE 2025 (Vertical Intelligence & BEyond), the world’s first summit dedicated to vertical AI, will take place on July 10–11, 2025, at The Leela Palace, Bengaluru, hosted by Upekkha and SaaSBoomi. Unlike traditional AI conferences, VIBE promises to deliver functional AI pilots within 48 hours, with enterprise leaders presenting real-world challenges and 200+ AI startups building prototypes in 24-hour sprints called VIBE Pilots. “Walk in with a problem statement, walk out with a working AI pilot,” said Prasanna Krishnamoorthy, VIBE Convener and Upekkha Partner.

Key Features: Over 1,000 business leaders, 100 CXOs, and 50 speakers, including Shekhar Kirani (Accel) and Shankar Maruwada (EkStep), will address India’s $50 billion AI market. Sessions cover banking, healthcare, manufacturing, insurance, energy, space, and consumer-tech, with applications like fraud detection and inventory management. Simon Wardley’s keynote and Prof. Saras Sarasvathy’s session frame the event, alongside VIBE Awards and CXO workshops on governance and strategy.

Impact and Context: With India hailed as the “AI use-case capital” by Satya Nadella, VIBE 2025 aims to match industry pain points with AI talent, fostering partnerships. Upekkha, established in 2017, and SaaSBoomi, representing 1,500+ SaaS firms, drive this initiative to reshape India’s AI ecosystem.
