boring.

encourages spontaneous, open-ended interactions, exchange of knowledge and
ideas, learning and unlearning the dynamics of various trends. Barcamp makes
technology fun and I make it a point to never miss it.”
“We are delighted
that SAP Labs is partnering with us in our objective of promoting fresh ideas
and providing talent and innovation a platform to germinate. Barcamp is a
catalyst for knowledge sharing especially among the younger generations and we
