Day 1 @ BarCampBangalore

Hello Friends,

Welcome to Anbusivam’s blog page.



As I said in one of my previous posts, had been to BarCampBangalore today. My first encounter with some thing called unconference. It was really great to be part of almost 400 plus young, energetic and enthusiastic minds with fresh ideas at IIM-Bangalore . Being an unconference, participants were encouraged to actively share their thoughts and ideas. People came up with impromptu sessions and talks.

I took part in Startups group and Investors group, couldn't catch up with Bloggers group as it happened in concurrent. I would say, the best part of such conferences is hanging around to meet up people during breaks, getting to know, sharing ideas and becoming friends. Had a chance to talk to Kiruba Shankar an active member of open source community and many more interesting geeks.

Here are some photos from Day-1 of BarCampBangalore.

Prof.Kumar from (NSRCEL-IIMB) on Startups in India.


Eager participants catching up with Dr.Musa on Investment Basics in the corridor. Wow...real spirit of an unconference. Dr.Musa ,is a medical doctor turned into financial advisor by choice.

Going to be interesting tomorrow as well.

With Love,
Anbusivam
