During SIGGRAPH 2025 in Vancouver, the chapter hosted an informal India SIGGRAPH Community Meetup. About 15 participants, some travelling from India and some working internationally, met over lunch for a community and strategy conversation.
The group discussed how India can play a bigger role in the next generation of computer graphics, AI, world models, simulation and model development, and how researchers, technologists, artists and filmmakers in India can work more closely with the Indian SIGGRAPH community abroad. Mentorship, research–industry collaboration and community building were recurring themes.
