The India Circuit Blogs

1. The Cadence keynotes: Lip-Bu Tan on Day 1 and Babu Mandava on Day 2

Apart from being part of the executive management team at Cadence, both Lip-Bu and Babu are veterans of the industry. They have a wealth of experience and insight, and they will be sharing their visions of where the industry is going and what technology trends to look out for in the coming years. We don't often get to hear from global leaders, so make sure to come in time to listen to Lip-Bu and Babu.

2. Networking

We have two tea breaks and one lunch break which are excellent opportunities to network with your peers from the industry. The value of going to conferences is not just what you learn in the sessions, but also who you meet, the professional bonds that you form, and getting to know about what your peers in the industry are working on.

3. Stop by the Designer Expo

We have three of our global sponsors - GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Doulos and ClioSoft - exhibiting at the Designer Expo, as well as several of our partners. Each of them is going to be showcasing a unique offering, so stop by and see what they have to show.

4. Selfie booth

Since we started it three years ago, the selfie booth at CDNLive India has been hugely popular. Each year it's a slightly new design, and we're sure you'll love what we've done this year. Make sure you use the hashtag #CDNLiveIndia when you post online!

5. The Closing Ceremony

Not only do we announce the Best Paper award winners in each track during the closing ceremonies on both days, we also have a lucky draw for the Designer Expo Passport Game and the CDNLive app leaderboard. You can't win if you're not physically present in the room, so don't miss it!

6. The CDNLive app

I mentioned it in my last blog, and I'll say it again - download the app to be on top of whatever is happening at CDNLive India. It's got surveys, polls, posts...it's the one-stop destination to know what's happening in real time.

All of us in the CDNLive India team are super excited about the event and we hope you are too! If for whatever reason you can't make it to the event, make sure to follow theCDNLive India Facebook page to follow along in real time.
