'Out of Box' conference in Bangalore

BANGALORE, INDIA: Catalyst Labs has announced the “Out of Box (OOB) Conference” to be held at J N Tata Auditorium here from September 14 – 15, 2007, “which will bring together technology geeks, scientists, creative geniuses and business rebels” on one common platform.

The annually held OOB Conference will present an opportunity to view the latest in technology, discover the newest in science, experience the process of creativity and above all gain the inspiration to become achievers.

This year’s motto for the OOB Conference is “One percent inspiration and one percent perspiration”. The conference will draw thirty speakers discussing on innovative ideas, Internet, science and technology, creativity and entrepreneurship. Each speaker will discuss the factors that kept them going and the challenges that nearly made them give up. The common feature of all these speakers is that they had an “out of box" idea, which helped them to accomplish their visions.

“This conference is a way towards generating unique ideas that will revolutionize and change the way we do things” remarked MC Preetham, project director. He further added “Every attendee gets to listen to achievers who had an “Out of Box” idea and which they saw through to fruition to achieve their desired goal in life.”

Some of the key speakers of the conference are Sharad Sharma, CEO Yahoo India; S Janakiraman, CEO, Mind Tree Consulting; Dilip Chabria, DC Designs; Dr. Devi Shetty, founder, Narayana Hrudyalaya; Prof S. Sadagopan, director IIT-B; Bhupendra Sharma, Erehwon Consulting and Randy Wang, Microsoft Research.
