We are delighted to invite you to attend and contribute to ADCx India 26, a one-day pop up format of the Audio Developer Conference (ADC).
ADC is a not-for-profit event and is dedicated to providing education and essential resources to audio developers around the world. Our mission is to bring the audio developer community together, and promote diversity and accessibility.
After two successful events in 2024 & 2025 that helped scale up the music and audio tech ecosystem in India, the in-person and live-streamed ADCx style conference will once again return to Bengaluru on 29 March 2026 at the Bangalore International Centre (BIC).
ADCx India 26 will be an in-person conference and the talks will also be broadcast live to our YouTube channel for online attendees.
A big part of the conference experience is the interaction between attendees that helps form new connections and gain knowledge. The hybrid format will ensure that these informative sessions can be attended by our community of developers, educators, and students all over the world.
The schedule will include short and impactful 18 minute talks on a diverse range of topics, along with networking breaks that will be open to all the attendees.
Whether you are an industry expert, a creative technologist, a student or an emerging talent, we invite you to share your insights, discoveries, and experiences at ADCx India by submitting a talk.
Talks at ADC range from audio research, to professional practices, to standards in audio development, as well as talks about application areas and career development. Experimental projects are welcome. We are seeking a balance between deeply technical talks aimed at experts as well as more accessible talks that may be of interest to students and new developers.
