The summit will be attended by a huge number of entrepreneurs, mostly women. The theme for the summit in 2017 is 'Women First, Prosperity for All'.
Ivanka, who is undertaking her first solo foreign visit, was asked by Modi to attend the summit when the Indian Prime Minister visited the US this year.
The US President's daughter is expected to address a session also on Wednesday.
On the occasion of Ivanka's India visit, Hyderabad has been virtually shut down with deployment of huge security personnel.
While Ivanka is expected to travel the city, Modi will host a dinner for his US counterpart's daughter at Hyderabad's Falaknuma Palace, media reports said.
Modi will also be busy in inaugurating a metro project in the city on Tuesday along with attending the summit with Ivanka.
