The proposed approach is to have a conference with plenary sessions, breakout and an exhibition focused on knowledge sharing, networking and building synergy.
Morning plenary sessions with carefully selected keynote speakers, fireside chats and panelists will set the stage for the day’s theme. The last sub-theme will give way to parallel breakout sessions where organizations and companies will showcase impactful projects and best practices and discussions will be held on challenges to scalability and select case studies. Parallel sessions will continue through the afternoon with discussions and expositions around research studies, mapping research gaps and identifying crucial interventions.
The proposed program will present as follows:
