SUTRA- The Sustainable Trade Summit

SUTRA is a platform convened by IDH that connects brands, producers, government, finance, and civil society to raise ambition on responsible sourcing in India. We curate signals and insights, building proof that can travel across sectors, to catalyze partnerships that align incentives, investment, and accountability—so better sourcing becomes the norm, not the exception.

SUTRA exists for a simple reason: the future of sourcing will be won by those who can prove that competitiveness and responsibility can grow together.

Each year, the flagship SUTRA Summit comes together to push the bar on responsible sourcing and turn ambition into outcomes. We connect unlikely partners and enable meaningful collaboration across sectors: brands and suppliers, farmer institutions and innovators, policymakers and financiers. We curate the signals that matter, translate field realities into decision-ready insight, and elevate proof that works—so the ecosystem spends less time reinventing and more time scaling what is effective.
