Exhibition
Shining through
Top industry players showcase their cutting-edge technologies.
Staying on top of technology is by no means easy. It takes
time to stay abreast of changes, to tell facts from claims; to make sure they
fit in with existing infrastructure. Technology Senate theme pavilions featured
the latest products from the biggest players. Technologies that cover the very
best in storage, wireless, connectivity, desktops & servers, document management
and security were displayed at the theme pavilions. There were elaborate arrangements
for live demonstrations, interactive presentations, one-on-ones with sellers
and buyers. This is where all the action was taking place.
Says Pinakiranjan Mishra, Associate Director, Ernst &
Young, “The response of the event has been encouraging. In the first half
of the second day of TS 2005, we had two enquires—one from Star India,
and the other, American Express. These events give a global platform for vendors
and businesses to interact and exchange their experiences. Additionally, emerging
businesses have money and are willing to spend on technology, which is why they
are coming to us to help them solve their business hurdles.” N P Singh,
Vice-president, IT, Madura Garments was realistic when he said, “There
were important and interesting sessions no doubt but some tracks were back-to-back
because of which many delegates did not find time to visit the theme pavilions.”

Executives of Amara Raja Batteries told Express Computer that
it was fantastic to be able to address so many decision-makers under a single
platform. The company received a positive response from CIOs and has been able
to create awareness about the importance of batteries in UPS. ADC Krone executives
said that its products created a lot of interest among CIOs and they were happy
to be in the exhibition. An Emerson India official said that awareness regarding
UPS was always there, but organisations used to treat it as something of a peripheral
item. This conclave acted as an awareness builder for UPS systems that certainly
goes beyond putting a box in the office.
