ICON Bharat, a platform committed to integrating traditional wisdom with vedic sciences, is hosting a two-day international conference on August 31 and September 1, 2024. This event organised by Srimaharshi Research Institute of Vedic Technology (SRIVT) aims to inspire budding researchers, scientific organizations, and the youth by showcasing the relevance of ancient Indian practices in today’s world of science and innovation.
Bridging the Past with the Present
In an exclusive interview with My Startup TV, the organizing committee of ICON Bharat shared their insights into the conference, its mission, and the benefits it offers to participants. According to the committee, the event’s primary objective is to bridge the gap between the vedic knowledge and the modern sciences, creating a dialogue that transcends time and discipline. “Our goal is to create a platform where the rich heritage of Indian knowledge systems can be explored alongside the latest scientific discoveries,” said Dr Paruchuri Gangadhar Rao, Chairman ICON Bharat, Organising Committee.
The conference will feature a series of lectures, panel discussions, and workshops led by experts in various fields, including Ayurveda, astronomy, mathematics, and agriculture. These sessions will highlight how ancient Indian practices can be applied in contemporary research and development, providing innovative solutions to modern challenges. Honourable Minister for Coals and Mines G.Kishan Reddy, Government of India, and Sri. D. Sridhar Babu, Honourable IT Minister of Telangana are expected to inaugurate the event.
A Platform for Innovation and Inspiration
ICON Bharat has carefully curated a lineup of speakers who are not only well-versed in vedic sciences but also have a deep understanding of modern science. This blend of expertise is designed to provide participants with a holistic view of how traditional practices can inform and enhance contemporary scientific endeavours.
One of the key themes of the conference is the role of ancient Indian knowledge in sustainable development. For instance, sessions on Ayurveda will explore how traditional medicinal practices can contribute to modern healthcare, offering natural and holistic approaches to wellness. Similarly, discussions on ancient Indian agricultural techniques will explore sustainable farming practices that can help address today’s environmental challenges.
In addition to these thematic sessions, the conference will also feature case studies that demonstrate the successful integration of vedic sciences into modern scientific research. These examples will serve as inspiration for budding researchers, encouraging them to explore interdisciplinary approaches in their work.
Empowering the Youth and Scientific Community
The organizing committee emphasized that one of the main goals of the conference is to empower the youth and the scientific community. “We believe that by exposing young researchers and scientists to the wisdom of our ancestors, we can spark new ideas and innovations that have the potential to revolutionize various fields,” said, Dr. A B S Sastry, Founder of SRIVT.
To this end, the conference has been structured to provide ample opportunities for interaction and networking. Participants will have the chance to engage with experts, exchange ideas, and collaborate on projects that align with the conference’s mission.

Insights from the Organizing Committee
In their interview with My Startup TV, the ICON Bharat organizing committee shared more details about the vision behind the conference. They highlighted the importance of preserving and promoting India’s rich cultural heritage while ensuring that it remains relevant in today’s fast-paced, technology-driven world.
Muralikrishna Iyyanki, a member of the Research Advisory Council, said, our ancestors possessed a deep understanding of the natural world, and their knowledge has been passed down through generations.
