Talks
Talks would be in the form of webinars about topics that an audience would like to hear more. The duration would range from 1-2 hours and could cater to larger groups. It would be a combination of information being shared and time at the end for a Q & A session.
Given the covid scenario it would for now be a zoom connect call and then probably shift offline as well once things are more under control.
Please write in sharing the topic or areas of interest, time duration, number of participants expected and date and based on availability it would get confirmed.
Costing would be worked out based on the number or participants as well as the duration of the session. Please write in with your requirements and I will revert to you.
