The main theme of the Conference is "Hindi: From Traditional Knowledge to Artificial Intelligence”. The Website and Logo for the Conference were launched earlier in October 2022 in New Delhi by External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar.

A special issue of "Gagananchal" will be brought out by the Indian Council for Cultural Relations which will be dedicated to the Conference.

As per the past practice, during the Conference, Hindi scholars from India and other countries will be honoured with "Vishwa Hindi Samman" for their special contribution to the field of Hindi.
