“We work with all stakeholders, including the government, to identify opportunities and promote our member companies and the overall IT ecosystem in Hyderabad,” he said at a media interaction on Thursday.

The summit will feature four round tables on the new delivery models, newer processes, tools and frame works that have merged across key organisational functions like delivery, HR, Talent and Finance, a release said. The deliberations will be on emerging ways of business development. Speakers from angel circuits, venture and PE firms will be participating in the summit.
