Why ICA
Weekend 

India lacks a serious platform dedicated to authors, writers and content creators of Indian food. A young, accessible platform that instils academic rigour into its agenda while giving space to young and emerging writers/creators will add immense value to Indian food sector. Indian Culinary Agenda aims to do just that.

Coming April, ICA Weekend will bring together more than 150 influential voices from the Indian food knowledge ecosystem – print, digital, social media, and visual media etc – to deliberate on matters of research, documentation, content creation, sanctity of information and evangelization of Indian food.
