What happens when some of the sharpest minds in consumer research, industry, and policy gather to tackle the questions shaping the future of society?
In January 2027, Mumbai will host the Asia-Pacific Association for Consumer Research (ACR) Conference for the very first time, bringing the global consumer research community to the S.P. Jain Institute of Management & Research campus.
Over four days, leading researchers, practitioners and policymakers from across the world will come together to explore how consumer research can drive meaningful societal impact, from sustainability and technology to financial well-being and inclusive growth. Expect bold ideas difficult questions, emerging perspectives, and conversations that could shape the future of the field.
The Asia-Pacific ACR Conference will feature competitive paper presentations, collaborative research opportunities and immersive experiences designed to spark dialogue across academia, industry and policy.
For scholars and practitioners working at the intersection of consumers, markets, and society, this is not a conversation to watch from the sidelines.
