"While the Indo-ASEAN IT business meet has been successful with GESIA signing an MoU with ICT Davao, Philippines, we want to see more such events being organised in Gujarat. Since these ASEAN delegates were on their way to INDIASOFT 2010 in Jaipur which begins on March 10, they dropped in at Ahmedabad for the business summit.

Therefore, ESC Gujarat chapter, GESIA and DST are working together to bring this event to Ahmedabad next year. We are in advanced talks with ESC and hope to sign the deal soon," said Saxena.
