Research before agenda
We talk to the audience before we design the day. The agenda answers questions they actually have, not the ones easiest to fill.
About EBM
An events business built around the audience, not the venue.
Connecting businesses, fostering growth
Empiric Business Media (EBM) creates impactful business experiences that bring together industry leaders, innovators, and decision-makers to exchange ideas, build connections, and drive meaningful growth.
Founded in 2019 and based in Mumbai, Empiric Business Media has spent 7 years building industry franchises rather than one-off events — returning to the same communities edition after edition, in cybersecurity, HR technology, manufacturing and BFSI.
That is a deliberately narrow footprint. We would rather know our sectors properly than run a general-purpose events calendar across twenty.

How we work
Seniority over volume
Invitation-led, vetted delegate acquisition. A smaller room of the right people beats a full room of the wrong ones.
Formats that produce conversation
Roundtables, one-to-ones and hosted networking, not just a stage and a corridor of stands.
Franchises, not one-offs
We build series that return — eight editions of Manufacturing 5.0, three of the HR Tech summit — so the community compounds.
