The three-day interactive
conference will see represen­tatives from across the world - global customers,
CIO's and companies coming together to share their success with India Inc and
its growing rele­vance in the global economy. This exclu­sive congregation of
leaders will also see a number of Fortune 500 com­panies, which have a strong
presence in India and are customers of Indian IT. They are also rapidly outsour­cing
support and other services to India.

Today - the India advan­tage
is well recognized in the world of IT, globally. In the recent past, mergers and
acquisitions have largely driven the growth of the industry indicating a great
degree of interest and excite­ment in the Indian IT and IT enabled services.
