Why should you participate?
What makes Geospatial World Forum a must-attend event of 2013 is the fact that this is a key conference which aims at bringing together key stakeholders of the geospatial eco-system including technology developers, policy makers and most importantly end-users of the technology to facilitate interactions and growth of the industry. Since 2007, the conference has played the role of a facilitative platform for harnessing growth of the geospatial sector and establishing its vital role in several vertical domains like mining and exploration, governance, construction, utilities, environment, disaster management and the like. The deliberations at this year’s forum will revolve around the central theme – Monetising Geospatial Value and Practices which will highlight the return of investment and social value that geospatial helps businesses and governments to create in their work process and output.
We welcome all our members to take advantage of this international platform to network with the industry experts, learn from innovative end-users, discuss policy issues with senior decision makers and understand the upcoming technology trends from the research community at Geospatial World Forum
