DPS Round-Tables

DPS introduced a new learning and knowledge-transfer feature for its senior audience – both at executive level and technical leadership level. This new initiative was called “DPS Round Tables” which were closed-room discussions, and these were an instant hit with the audience. There were three types of round tables designed for the delegates:
1. Women-In-Technology Round Table for women leaders in technology
2. Executive Round Tables for Executive Leadership and Organization Heads
3. Technology Round Tables for Technology Leaders
