Views Ideas

What they ‘want’

This is an excellent event, and I think that there may be an

opportunity to broaden attendance. -Anon

TCS is a true leader in the industry and events such as the Innovation Forum showcase the thought leadership the

company provides.-Anon

Many interesting topics and exhibits. I wrote more tweets for this event than any other

I've attended.- Ralph Rio, Research

Director, ARC

Great event. I liked the fact that it was not sales related.

- Kalyan Raman, CTO, Nielsen

More speakers and panelists from amongst IT leaders of

TCS clients

You may consider including some brain storming

sessions in small groups - on a specific topic

This would work well as a single day session following

the TCS Summit in NA.

Cloud Application Adoption in Large

Enterprises - Some additional case studies

would help

Recruit more clients to attend - particularly senior

IT and line-of-business execs. Event contains true

thought leadership.
