The entire campaign will be substantive as the suggestions, ideas, insights, research and conclusions of the discussions will all be curated by our research team along with a leading global consulting firm to produce an action plan ‘white paper’.
“Times Television Network brings India’s first and most comprehensive Information Communication Technology (ICT) forum – Digital India Summit 2015”, added MK Anand.
