RATIONALE
Over the years, IT business in India has witnessed a linear growth where companies had to add head count to increase revenue. This model survived the past two decades, but is unlikely to sustain the growth pace given the rapidly escalating employee costs in India and inefficiencies associated with unwieldy growth in employee numbers. What are the current priorities and business strategies for a non-linear growth?
PLENARY SESSIONS
The one day India IT summit 2011 will see industry experts and thought leaders discuss this and related challenges faced by the IT industry and the strategies required to address them, over three plenary sessions:
* IT Industry challenges for sustaining growth
* Growth strategies through economic downturns
* Industry preparedness to address the challenges
