If you're organizing your trip to Zenith Live Mumbai 2026, here's what belongs on your must-do list. Zscaler's flagship learning conference lands in India for the first time this year, and with 70+ sessions on the agenda, picking the best conference sessions to attend matters as much as showing up. Cloudi-Fi returns as a Gold Sponsor, and while we're skipping a formal breakout session this time, there's still plenty worth planning around. Here's Simranjeet Singh's list of 10 things to do while you're there.

Quick facts: Zenith Live Mumbai 2026

1. Catch the best keynote to attend: Zero Trust SASE for the AI era

Adam Geller (Chief Product Officer), Deepen Desai (EVP, Chief Security Officer), Praniti Lakhwara (EVP, CIO & Head of Enterprise AI), and Hemant Dabke (Area VP & Managing Director, India) open the event with Zscaler's vision for Zero Trust SASE in the AI era. If you attend one keynote at Zenith Live Mumbai, make it this one.

2. Register for Monday's hands-on technical training

Instructor-led training runs the day before the main event (Monday, September 21, 9:00 AM–6:00 PM). Seats fill up, so register ahead of time to walk away with hands-on skills and certification credit.

3. Watch a live demo of Cloudi-Fi's native Zscaler ZIA integration at our booth

Stop by the Cloudi-Fi booth for a live demo led by Simranjeet Singh, Head of Sales Engineering, India/APAC at Cloudi-Fi. Simranjeet will show how Cloudi-Fi's native integration with Zscaler ZIA identifies and authenticates every user and device at scale, guests, BYOD, IoT, and employees alike, from one single platform, with no agent required. SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) starts at the network, where users and devices first connect, and that's exactly the gap this demo covers.

4. Attend the best customer conference session: CIOs and CISOs on stage

"Enterprise AI Without Compromise: Innovation, Security, and Zero Trust" brings together Ambrish Kumar Singh (CISO, Godrej Enterprises Group), Manish Gupta (Group CIO, Aditya Birla Group), Pallavi Katiyar (CIO, Tech Mahindra), and Shivani Arni (Enterprise CISO, Mahindra Group) to discuss how they're accelerating AI innovation without increasing risk. Customer-led sessions like this are consistently the most useful conference sessions to attend at any Zenith Live event.

5. Explore the AI security breakout track

Track 1 (Security for AI) runs sessions like "Zero Trust for Agentic AI: Securely Enable AI Agents Everywhere" and "Securing AI Innovation and Data," covering non-human identities, AI agent traffic, and data protection as AI adoption accelerates.

6. Walk the expo showcase and partner ecosystem

Beyond the keynotes and breakouts, the expo showcase is where you see how the Zscaler ecosystem fits together in practice. Stop by partner booths to see integrations demoed side by side.

7. Check out the Zero Trust SASE Everywhere track

Track 3 covers practical architecture, including "Modernizing the Branch & Campus: A Zero Trust SASE Blueprint" and "How Zero Trust SASE Delivers Measurable TCO Savings," useful sessions if you're evaluating what to retire from your current stack.

8. Join the networking and social events

Zenith Live Mumbai has several built-in moments to connect: the Networking Lunch and Expo Showcase at midday, Networking Hi Tea in the late afternoon, and the Celebrity Concert, Expo Showcase, and Networking Dinner & Cocktails to close out the evening.

9. Follow #ZenithLive for real-time updates

Follow the event hashtag on LinkedIn and X for session changes, spontaneous meetups, and side conversations that don't always make the printed agenda.

10. Join Zscaler PartnerConnect

Running in parallel with the afternoon breakouts (5:15 PM–7:30 PM), PartnerConnect is built for the sales and technical teams driving the Zscaler partner ecosystem forward. Register for PartnerConnect at https://www.zenithliveapj.com/india/partner-connect#register.

Cloudi-Fi and Zscaler: a partnership built on shared customers

Cloudi-Fi has sponsored Zscaler Zenith Live in Europe and the US for four consecutive years, and has been a Platinum Sponsor there for the last two. That partnership is backed by more than 50 shared customers, including some of the largest enterprises in the US and some of the most recognized global brands.

At Zenith Live Vienna earlier this year, Baker & Baker's Steffen Erler, Head of IT Security, put it directly: "We are no longer using [our legacy NAC appliance] because Cloudi-Fi can do it, so we saved some licenses there, and some headache."
