The conference will be hosted on the iconic campus of Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) (http://www.iimb.ernet.in)<http://www.iimb.ernet.in/>. A 100-acre oasis in south Bengaluru, IIMB is a premier management Institute in India. Located in India's high technology capital, IIMB is in close proximity to some of the leading firms in the country. The verdant campus with its all-stone architecture, statuesque columns, and hidden open spaces creates a lasting impression on visitors and residents alike.

>From a dusky town of seventies with mild weather and numerous lakes, Bengaluru has emerged as a leading global city of the 21st century boasting modernity amidst tradition. The city is a unique blend of modernity and heritage, reflected in its architecture, cuisine, and way of life. Local attractions in Bengaluru include the Bengaluru Palace and the Fort of Tipu Sultan. Together with the neighboring cities, Bengaluru has retained the history of the Vijayanagara empire (1336-1565 AD), which excelled in the Hindu temple architecture. Bengaluru is also a nest of nature housing Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary and Bannerghatta Biological Park. In the regional neighborhood, one can escape into the dense vegetation of Bandipur and enjoy elephant rides into the forest reserves in search of big cats.
