• Building on the great success of Outsourcing (ITES-BPO)
  As the pressure to cut costs increase and the opposition to outsourcing diminishes does the emergence of ITES-BPO sector signify the beginning of a new era?
  
  What are the challenges ITES-BPO will face? What are the opportunities they can exploit?

• Tapping Product-centric opportunities
  While India has been able to establish its strong credentials in the IT services arena, India has not been able to make a dent in the software products market. India has only been able to capture a meager 0.2% of the US$ 180 billion market.
  
  Why is it that the Indian companies do not make such products as MsOffice, Oracle DB, CA Brightstor etc? Should there be a paradigm shift for this to happen? What is it that takes to be a successful product company?

CONTINUUM 2005 aspires to provide answers to these questions by offering a platform for interaction and debate, and an avenue for presenting a future roadmap for IT industry.
