Business Technology Summit 2010

10 November 2010, Bangalore, India

Business Technologies are changing the way we work, live and do business. From being at the forefront of a fundamental shift in the way companies obtain software and computing capacity, Business Technologies are now allowing enterprises to apply the flip side of Moore's law: from providing ever-increasing performance at a particular price to providing a particular level of performance at an ever-lower price. As the world slowly but surely emerges out of one of the worst global slow down in recent times, and learns to grapple with a dynamic and ever changing economy, our enterprises present us with even more challenges and requirements to become agile, service-oriented, customer-oriented, cloud enabled, business intelligent and socially connected. Centered on the theme Shaping Your Enterprise for New Business Realities, the third edition of India's annual summit for business technologies featured some of the most important and relevant tracks that empowered attendees with all the necessary know-how required for their applications and their companies to prosper in this climate, now and into the future: Cloud Computing and Service Oriented Architecture & Web Services.

CIO Business Congress 2010

22-24 July 2010, Goa

The role of the CIO has changed dramatically during the past decade. In fact, while the jobs of other senior executives have been relatively defined for some time, CIOs have witnessed dramatic regulatory, security and business model changes that have turned their jobs upside down. If a decade ago, the CIO’s job was to dutifully manage IT budgets and oversee the release of new technologies, the CIO of today is a full-fledged member of that executive staff engaged in critical business strategy decisions. CIO Business Congress (CBC) 2010 not only recognized this changing role, but also paid cognizance to the fact that today's CIO investments in IT are becoming more than just business enablers or assets on the books; they provide capability that can drive the business. CBC 2010 constituted the intersection of India's most proactive CIO's and the world's most successful platform vendors. The two day residential congress offered a fresh perspective on much-discussed trends including cloud, virtualization, mobility, business intelligence, data centers and much more. Peer CIOs, visionaries and vendor executives lead timely and relevant keynotes, power panels, executive exchanges and workshops on the impact of these technologies for the CIO and the future of IT leadership in the business.

Game Developer Summit 2011

Bangalore, India

The games industry in India has its healthy share of rockstars and a burgeoning stream of wannabes. A relatively nascent industry, many of its practitioners and consumers were dubbed as geeks and outcasts, and many of them ridiculed for their passion. Add to it is the insatiable craving for academic and critical discourse and a repulsion of it for many of the same reasons. Game Developer Summit resolves the need for an active platform that discusses the combination of programming, interactivity, aesthetics, sound, user experience and gaming business. The summit, a clear indicator of a growing game developer community in India who are keen on catching up with the Americas and the Chinas, brings together the entire community together for the first time under one roof - a first step towards a grander unification of the industry.
