I would like to thank the entire organizing committee of Indian Express Group for working out such a wonderful event and making it a grand success. In spite of a few hiccups the event was marvelous.

I would like to appreciate each and every one on the committee who took a patient hearing to all the problems and resolved the issues very efficiently.

I wish them all the luck in all their future endeavors to organize similar events, and reassure them that they will get all the support and backing from all the CIOs in India.

I suggest you host the next year's event at Nepal, Singapore, or Malaysia.

Dear all

Thank you so much for your kind words of appreciation. The events and editorial teams at Network Magazine are absolutely thrilled by the response we have received from you.

We look forward to meeting you all at next year's Technology Senate, and hope to see you at other conferences and events we organize throughout the year. We will let you know about next year's venue soon.

Increase the domain

I have gone through the 'Hi-Tech Hotshots' section of Network Magazine, which cover professional and personal activities of CIOs, and lets us know their thoughts about various aspects. I personally feel that CIOs should look beyond IT and should increase their domain of work and expertise. This will give them a truer feeling of being in the mainstream of the organization.

Dear M K Mittal

Thank you very much for sharing your point of view with us. I am sure many CIOs will take your opinion seriously and begin to look beyond their IT responsibilities in their organizations, and consequently achieve better professional fulfillment.

I subscribe to your magazine and read each issue regularly. I find the articles that you publish to be very helpful indeed.

I have recently joined as a network engineer and manage call center equipment. Is there much future scope and prospects in the area of managing Definity switches?

Dear Aninda

We had forwarded your query to Rajiv Gerela, General Manager - Technology, Wipro Spectramind Services Ltd, and he has written the following:

Definity switches are manufactured by Avaya Global Connect in India (earlier called Tata Telecom Ltd). These switches are mostly used by call centers and also companies as office PBX systems. Due to the high growth of call center services in India, these have been deployed in large numbers. So there would be lots of possibilities of getting good opportunities on Definity systems.

But yes it would help if you can gain good exposure to all the different systems and setups.

I hope this advice can help you.

Aninda's follow-up mail:

Thank you for the very useful advice. I appreciate the effort that Network Magazine has made in order to get the query answered by an industry expert.

Regards,

Aninda
