FAQ | • Why is the lunch coupon compulsory? As stated earlier, Data Platform Day is a full day event targeted towards people who wish to learn with us for the whole day and are willing to spend their Saturday with us, learning & networking. To ensure that lunch is available for our attendees who are there for the whole day, we have to give Microsoft Cafeteria a confirmed number so that lunch can be prepared accordingly. To achieve that, buying a lunch coupon @ INR 124 is compulsory. And we strongly discourage half-day attendance. Lunch coupon is just 124 rupees (highly subsidized). • Can I attend the event half-day? • Can I come in second half? • I don’t want to have lunch at Microsoft Cafeteria. I prefer to eat outside and come back. Is that possible? • Apart from buying the lunch coupon, do I need to pay for anything else? • Is the amount refundable? |
