   AGENDA
   9.15  to 10.25 AM: The two ladders: Which one is for me?
   The two ladders: tech or biz? Where do you leave technology to adopt
   the business sense? What is enough technology for you to manage the
   business? In which stream will you make more? What is a successful
   career track for you in either?

   SPEAKERS
   S Surya, Managing Director, Infineon Technologies (India)
   Krishna Bharat, Center Head, Google (India) R&D Center
   Mahesh Mehendale, Director, SoC Design,Texas Instruments (India)
   Nicholas Dattoma, Director of Engineering, BEA Systems

   10.25  to 11.20 AM Technical Ladder myth or reality
   Tech ladder: is it a myth? The higher you go, the lesser you work in
   technology. Does pure technology have a career path? Customer-facing
   situations are not your cup of tea: but how do you cross the bridge?

   SPEAKERS
   L Gopalakrishnan, Director, Platform Technologies Group, Oracle India
   Development Center
   Pawan Goyal, Director of Engineering, Veritas Software India
   Dhananjay Joshi, Technology Lead, Accenture India Delivery Center
   Bala Sreekandatth, Technical Manager - Applications, Synopsys (India)

   11.50 to 1.00 PM Ascending the Ladder
   Ascending the ladder: faster, better, smoother. Either as a tech lead
   or biz lead, moving up is a challenge. What does it take to make the
   cut? Who is a good tech lead? Who is a good biz lead? When do you stop
   being one, and start another role?

   SPEAKERS
   Seetharaman Harikrishnan, Director, Microsoft India Development Center
   Niraj Patel, Director, ASIC Division, einfochips
   Sundar Nagarajan, Lab Director, HP Systems Technology & Solutions
   Group

   2.30  to 3.30 PM: Switching ladders: How do I do it?
   What are the issues one needs to worry about to switch ladders (from
   technical to management ladder or vice versa)? What is the right time
   for such a switch over? How effectively and smoothly can one
   transition?

   SPEAKERS
   Saugat Sen, Group Director, Cadence Design Systems
   Speaker from Cisco & Intel

   3.30  to 4.40 PM  How do I switch from a services company to a product
   company?
   Switching tracks: How do you break into a product company? Does a
   services company portend the end of your technical learning? How do
   you manage a product company?
