Behind the scenes

The conference, from the other side

Abhinav Jethi, organising team

Returning to this venue filled me with nostalgia, having attended the conference only the previous year as a participant. This year, on the other side of the fence as an organiser, felt like a dream come true.

The tickets had sold out in a day, and people had high expectations. Despite lingering doubts, we had complete confidence in each other. After more than five months of hard work, countless meetings and over 2,000 emails, the conference had finally arrived.

I loved how we all worked in such a beautiful symphony. We had each other’s backs and functioned like a unit.
