Lacklustre Bangalore IT.in 2007

Lacklustre Bangalore IT.in 2007

Bangalore IT.in 2007 being held at BIEC(Bangalore International Exhibition Centre) has received a lukewarm response from the IT crowded Bangalore city. Here is an image of the 'May I help You' Help-desk which was of no help to the sparse crowd that had gathered courage to drive down to BIEC, located at 10th mile Tumkur road (far away from the city.... 35 kilometers from my home) to see what was in store this year. The desk was unattended during peak hours of activity on day 2 of the fest. The distance from the city seems to be a prime reason for the low response received this year.

Interesting way see it!

IT.com was always a fest we used to attend as a group back in college. Too bad they shot themselves in the foot this time.

We were one of the participants and have decided to never ever participate in any such event hosted by Cyber Media.

On Monday a gentleman had a fall in front of the entrance to the exhibition area. He suffered a head injury because of which he started bleeding profusely. The organisers were so ill equipped that it took them a good 15 to 20 minutes to even get a first aid box forget having a doctor on call
