What Is Creator Lens Summit (CLS'26)?
Creator Lens Summit is a two-day creator-economy expo held in Chandigarh, bringing together creators, brands, agencies, marketers, and founders under one roof for networking, industry conversations, and collaboration. The 2026 edition (CLS’26) runs 31 July–1 August at The Lalit and is organised under the Dainik Jagran media group.
However, unlike a single-stage conference, CLS’26 is structured around three parallel tracks that run across both days:
- Partnerships and monetisation — sessions and meetings aimed at helping creators secure brand deals and scale reach
- Talent discovery — a space for brands and agencies to find and fast-track collaborations with curated creators
- Brand activations — exhibition spaces where brands can showcase products and close deals directly with the creator audience in the room
Who Should Attend
CLS’26 is built for four overlapping groups, and the programming reflects that mix rather than favouring one:
- Creators looking to meet brands, agencies, and each other in person
- Brands and marketers scouting creator partnerships for upcoming campaigns
- Agencies managing talent rosters or brand-creator matchmaking
- Founders and industry leaders in the broader content and media space
Consequently, if you’re only there to watch keynotes, this isn’t that kind of event — CLS’26 is pitched as a working, deal-making floor first.
The Creator Lens Awards
The Creator Lens Awards run alongside the summit and honour creators across format-specific categories — spanning beauty, automobiles, comedy and entertainment, dance, astrology and spiritual content, and more. Furthermore, nominations are open to both self-nominated creators and audience picks, and the Awards are positioned as a way to recognise originality and impact across the creator economy, not just follower count.
For example, if you or a creator you work with fits one of the award categories, nominations are handled through the official Creator Lens Summit site rather than the ticketing page — check the summit’s Awards section for the current nomination window before the event.
