India Today Conclave all set to start in the capital on Mar 16th

The India Today Conclave, India's thought festival for the finest minds from across the country and the world, is scheduled to take place in the capital on March 16-17, 2012. The theme this year is, The Asian Century: Securing the Global Promise. The focus, as usual, is on contemporary concerns as well as on innovations. But the Conclave will have a wider reach this year. Because India Today firmly believes that the more ideas are shared the bigger they become.
