To be held at Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam between 16th and 19th February, 2017, ISODA’s 7th edition of TechSummit is expected to unveil interesting deliberations and innovative product displays. Towards making this event a grand success, the ISODA community has been working tirelessly to onboard technology sponsors, create an interesting agenda, maximize participation and create a buzz around the event.
Rajeev Mamidanna – Chairman of ISODA TechSummit 7 and also the Association’s Vice President says, “This year’s TechSummit promises to be very interesting in that there is a vast variety of technologies on showcase. There are established players looking at spreading their partner base and there are startups that are looking at propagating their ideas to the partner community. The interest that technology vendors have shown is tremendous.”
The strong foundation of any event of such stature is the agenda and the opportunity for networking. And TechSummit 7 promises to have strengths in both. Says Mr. Mamidanna: “While the sponsors present on a myriad of technologies, there will be sessions on life coaching, how to be a successful entrepreneur yet spend time on passion and sharing of experiences that make successful businesses. There is in fact a whole day of activities built into the agenda that will be out of the hotel and will give all participating members a good chance to spend some quality time with the technology sponsors.”
ISODA members also vie for the ISODA excellence awards that are given away during the TechSummit. This year, already many have sent in their nominations and there is much excitement. The award categories are:
- ISODA Award for Business Excellence – Winner: one award, prize money Rs 21,001/-
- ISODA Award for Business Excellence – Upcountry Achiever, one award, prize money Rs 10,001/-
- ISODA Award for Business Excellence – Inspirational Achiever, three awards, prize money Rs 10,001/- each
The excitement has reached a crescendo with the ticketing already done and everyone waiting eagerly for the event dates to arrive. It is possibly the first time that so many ISODA first-timers are attending the TechSummit. And because of that reason, the excitement is louder!
Manish Goenka, Director ICONS Infocom says: “I have been waiting eagerly for TechSummit 7. After a successful TechSummit 6 at Langkawi, the expectations from the group are even higher this time. Of what I understand till now, it looks like a great agenda. I am actually very interested to hear from quite a lot of new vendors and hence I am excited at the prospects of new alliances.”
Rahul Joshi, Country Manager, Quickheal technologies says, “I have been part of most of the TechSummits at ISODA. This is one association I will always cherish as I have come back every time with new knowledge of trends, new alliances and new friends. I am excited to part of the 7th TechSummit. Moreover, the coverage that ISVs like us get through ISODA is amazing!”
Ashok Kumar, CEO, RAH Infotech says, “we are one the fastest growing value added distributors of India. Some of our alliances are unique and we attribute a lot of our growth to ISODA. The opportunities one gets as a member of ISODA is tremendous.”
Venkata Murthy, Prime Mover, 22by7 says: “TechSummit is an event where System Integrators like us get the opportunity to meet new vendors, form new partnerships and also meet our colleagues who help us regularly cover areas which we cannot. I have used ISODA as a platform to service customers where I do not have presence. Every nook and corner of the country is now covered by ISODA partners. And TechSummit gives me the opportunity to meet new members and work out new go to market strategies!”
