Coimbatore to host South India Media Summit 2025 from Sept 29

Hyderabad: Fourth Dimension Media Solutions, India’s leading media outsourcing company, has announced the sixth edition of the South India Media Summit (SIMS), to be held on September 29, 2025, at Le Meridien, Coimbatore.

The annual summit, known for its regionally focused insights and high-profile speaker line-up, will once again bring together top decision-makers, brand custodians, and media professionals from across the country for a day of dialogue, debate, and knowledge sharing.

The 2025 summit will explore a wide range of themes shaping the media and consumer landscape — from the role of AI, VR, and XR in storytelling to the rise of hyperlocal creators, the retail transformation in the South, shifting of balance between print and digital, and the interplay between cinema and OTT platforms. Discussions will also highlight how national brands are increasingly relying on regional ambassadors to strengthen their outreach.

Speaking on the upcoming edition, Ramesh S. Ramakrishnan, Chairman of Transworld Group, said: “South India’s media and consumer ecosystem is at an inflection point. By 2030, Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities are expected to account for over 60 per cent of India’s digital content consumption and nearly $200 billion in retail spending annually.”

Shankar B, CEO of Fourth Dimension Media Solutions, added: “Every edition of SIMS is shaped by the city that hosts it. Coimbatore has always had a unique blend of entrepreneurial clarity and media maturity.

This summit reflects that combination. We’re proud to bring voices together here that are not only shaping the narrative but also setting the pace.”

With its mix of industry insights and regional perspectives, SIMS 2025 is set to offer a forward-looking blueprint for the future of media in Southern India.
