His name is synonymous with social networking, and he will be at the 2008 Global Conference. This high impact but low profile Google product manager will feature in a panel with select IIT students and high schoolers.
Amartya Sen
The Nobel Laureate has rescheduled his busy schedule to make time for us, and will be flying in to deliver the closing address at the conference. You can hear from the man who has made it all the way to the highest honour in his career.
Hema Malini
Who can ever forget Basanti in Sholay? But there's a lot more to her than that awesome role. A professional dancer, a top-notch actress, a successful home-maker, now devoting time to charitable and social ventures, Hema Malini will participate in the Family Track at the 2008 conference.
